Getting Online Patient Reviews: David Evans Interview
If you’re noticing stars next to Google Search and Place results and would like to get in on that action, you’ll need to get your patients to submit online reviews. Some companies report 20-30% increases in click-through-rates after implementing star ratings in their search results.
Think of online patient reviews like public referrals. It’s like a bunch of happy customers standing at your shop front telling anyone who passes your clinic who good you are. Who wouldn’t want that?
Do you have an online patient review strategy for your healthcare clinic or hospital? Do you think patient reviews are important for your business? Do they impact sales? How hard is it to get patients to submit online reviews?
Rod Solar sat down with Dr David Evans, CEO of Ceatus Media Group to discuss getting online patient reviews. In this interview, Dr Evans reveals the research and case studies that suggest online patient reviews increase sales. He discusses the difference between a testimonial and a third-party online review. He shares advice on how to best get patient reviews and how to avoid getting negative reviews. Lastly, he explains why the time is right for UK and European clinics to start getting online patient reviews.
