PATIENTS & REFERRING PHYSICIAN BEHAVIORS

Patients and referring physicians alike were leaving websites for “background” checks on:

#1 = Physician Ratings Sites#2 = Google

Behavior Analysis: In May/June 2012 – 80% of website traffic

was diverted (60% to physician rating sites)Comparison: In 2011, 10-15% of all website traffic was

diverted to Google (only 1-2% to physician rating sites)

Doctor subscribed to HMCOE’s reputation management

Within 7 weeks he was able to gather 55 great reviews from his patients, and caught one complaint before it was published

Case Study #2 - “group mentality”

Once a bad review is posted, other bad ones are sure to follow

Same Doctor … Another review… Is it Credible?

This was written by a staff member to do “damage control” (this is illegal)

Case Study #3 - Patients Google the doctor of choice

HMCOE ran two well-tracked Google advertising campaigns for a 50-practice-group

One for brand advertisements (i.e. “best doctors in …” +brand)

One for each doctor’s expertise & reviews
