Results we have driven for clinics and hospitals

Healthcare is judged on booked appointments that show up, not clicks. These are outcomes from clinic and diagnostics engagements, in the metrics a practice owner actually tracks.

How patients actually choose care in India

Healthcare marketing breaks differently

Generic agency playbooks miss how patients search and decide. A few truths about care change everything we do.

  1. 01of 04
    LocalThe map pack

    Patients search near me and decide in the map pack, before they ever see your site.

    When someone needs a dentist, a diagnostic test, or a specialist, they search locally and choose from the three results in the Google map pack. If you are not there, the visit goes to whoever is. Local visibility is the first and biggest lever in healthcare, and most practices under-invest in it.

    Our methodA dental chain went from 3,400 to 28,000 Maps impressions a month.
  2. 02of 04
    ReviewsTrust is the conversion

    In healthcare, reviews and reputation are the conversion. A 4.8 beats a clever ad.

    A patient is trusting you with their health. Before they book, they read your reviews and judge your rating against the clinic down the road. A strong, recent review profile converts more searches than any creative, so we treat reputation as a growth channel, not a nicety.

    Our methodReview generation and reputation built into the patient-acquisition plan.
  3. 03of 04
    The booking gapPhone lines leak

    Most clinics lose patients to a phone line no one answers.

    Intent is highest the moment a patient decides to book, and a missed call or a closed front desk loses it to a competitor. Online booking and fast follow-up capture that intent when it is warm. One diagnostics chain went from taking every booking by phone to 210 online bookings a month.

    Our methodOnline booking plus follow-up so intent is captured, not lost to a busy line.
  4. 04of 04
    ComplianceThe most restricted ads

    Healthcare ads are the most restricted in India: no cure claims, limits on doctor promotion.

    The Drugs and Magic Remedies Act bars claims to cure certain conditions, the NMC code restricts how doctors can solicit patients, and ASCI polices misleading health claims. Compliance is not optional here. We build every campaign inside these rules so a clinic grows without inviting trouble.

    Our methodEvery creative checked against DOMA, NMC, and ASCI before it runs.

What healthcare growth is

Healthcare growth is earning the local patient’s trust

Healthcare marketing is the work of being found when a patient searches nearby, earning trust with proof and reviews, and turning that into a booked appointment, all within medical advertising rules.

The compliance moat

Compliant by default, across medical advertising rules

Healthcare is the most restricted category in marketing. We build to the rules that govern medical promotion in India, from the first creative.

  • DOMA-compliant claims

    No claims to cure the conditions the Drugs and Magic Remedies Act restricts, and no guaranteed outcomes. Treatments are described honestly.

  • NMC-ethical, no doctor solicitation

    We market the clinic and its services without the individual self-promotion of registered doctors that the NMC code of ethics restricts.

  • ASCI health and wellness code

    Every claim is substantiated and no misleading before-and-after or testimonial is used, so campaigns survive scrutiny.

  • Telemedicine Guidelines aligned

    Telehealth and online consultation are promoted within the 2020 Telemedicine Practice Guidelines, not around them.

  • DPDP health-data care and DLT

    Sensitive health data is handled with consent, no patient information is used in retargeting, and messaging runs on DLT-registered templates.

  • Google and Meta health-ad policy

    Campaigns are built inside the platforms’ health and medical advertising policies, so accounts are not suspended and ads are not rejected.

Compliance is built into the campaign, not a risk you carry alone.
