Your Patients Are Searching, Is Your Medical Website Showing Up?
We all work hard to create helpful content for our medical websites. But there’s a hidden gap keeping patients from finding you: Schema Markup. Think of it as a “secret decoder ring” that helps Google show your expertise right in search results.
Why This Matters for Your Practice
Stand Out Instantly
Schema turns plain listings into eye-catching previews:
Display doctor credentials, patient reviews, and “Book Appointment” buttons
Show accepted insurance or treatment FAQs before patients even click
(Example: A client saw 2x more appointment requests after adding Schema)
Answer Questions Before They’re Asked
When someone searches “knee replacement recovery time,” your clinic’s detailed answer can appear at the top. No more guessing what patients want.
Build Trust Faster
89% of patients check reviews first. Schema showcases your 5-star ratings and expertise directly in search, so they pick you over competitors.
Simple Steps to Get Started
Focus on Key Pages:
Doctor profiles (Name, specialty, education)
Services (e.g., “Cardiac Screening”)
Clinic location/hours
Use Free Tools:
Try Google’s Rich Results Test to see what’s missing.
Add Safely:
Avoid marking up private patient data. Stick to public practice info.
The Real Benefit
More visibility = more patients finding you organically. One orthopedic practice reduced ad spending by 30% after Schema made their listings more helpful.
