A ten second test any practice owner can run without a vendor, and a guide to the four things the answer tells you. Most owners have never checked, which is usually why the answer is someone else.
Healthcare Competitive Analysis Should End in a Decision
A competitor spreadsheet is not strategy. Start with a real decision, study how patients choose, separate observable facts from inference, and end with a testable commitment.
Concierge and DPC Marketing Must Explain the Contract
Concierge and direct primary care marketing should explain the actual membership, insurance relationship, access limits, pricing and patient responsibilities before persuasion begins.

Healthcare practices need appropriate continuity and enough new demand. Measure where patients fall out of the care journey before declaring retention cheaper than acquisition.
LASIK and Elective Eye Surgery Marketing
LASIK marketing should help people evaluate candidacy, surgeon and device facts, risk, alternatives, cost, and recovery without promising a life free from glasses.
Before-and-After Photos: Permission Does Not Prove the Claim
A defensible before-and-after program needs valid authorization, comparable capture, truthful editing, support for implied outcomes, clear context, and state-specific review.

Stop allocating healthcare marketing budgets from generic channel percentages. Fund the patient-journey constraint, protect measurement and test against capacity and economics.

Acquisitions, retirements, departures and new locations need a fact-based communication system that tells patients what changes, what stays and what they need to do.
