We want patients and referring offices to be able to find your medical office quickly. It takes months and even years for online services to pick up new office locations. We strongly recommend manually updating the following sites and profiles that are most used for locating physicians. Add pictures, website links, and be exhaustive with information about the services provided in the practice. List interests, clinical specialties, etc. as they will help patients find your office. Also, be sure to list any languages that are spoken in the office, if that is an option. Include information about the physician’s training for sites that allow it. A short bio is also very useful. And, pictures are highly recommended.

In addition, set up a Google alert for each physician in the office, mid-level providers, and the clinic name. Use that to learn of any other sites that may have the practice listed incorrectly. This is also a nice way to monitor the practice’s online presence.
