Can’t patients just search your clinic name on Google and leave a review that way?

Yes, patients can absolutely search your clinic name and click on “Write a review”. But for patients who don’t usually do that, and according to a recent study, 63% of people don’t usually go to google and leave a review. And asking them verbally to leave you a review can often lead them abandoning the process.
Simply asking your patients to leave you a review over the phone or face-to-face isn’t the most effective strategy. While patients are usually willing to support businesses with which they’ve had a positive experience with, human beings typically forget to do it after the transaction is complete for several reasons.
So the best way to increase your chances of the patient following through on their promise is to send them a link to leave you a positive Google reviews.
Using Docspe CMS allows you to leverage this smart tool. You can do this via email, or even via WhatsApp messaging, and it’s proven to be the most effective way to request reviews due to the fact that almost 100% of phone users click to open links (versus around 30% for email).

Bonus: Send a personal message if you remember your interaction with the patient to make it clear they’re not just reviewing the business, but the people who served them.

There are a few ways to get your Google review link, all of which are pretty simple. You can even start requesting Google reviews if you haven’t managed to claim your business yet (see option 4).
