The medical industry has been at the forefront of growth and innovation in recent years. New treatments are announced, new research shows the way for methods that extend life expectancy and improve patients' quality of life.
However, in the daily lives of doctors and patients, a tectonics takes place
a change in the way medical services are viewed that may not have been perceived by a large number of physicians. This change takes place in the way one chooses the doctor who will see him. The world of the internet has changed this way and we will see below how.
Today, patients have countless online. The most widely used options are the following.
New patients often start searching for a doctor on Google or another search engine. This makes it very important to have an online presence for doctors who want to reach new patients.
More and more patients are using smartphones as their main means of accessing the internet.
According to Hitwise, 68% of consumers start a health search with a search engine. This is another point that shows the importance of a doctor's website, being optimized and displayed correctly on devices such as mobile phones.
Although the word of mouth method is still very powerful as a means of finding a new doctor, today's patients - especially those born after 1980 - are following developments and news appearing on social media.
Social networking tools such as Facebook and Twitter provide an open space for friends and acquaintances to share their experiences and refer doctors.
Nine out of ten respondents to a Pew Research Center survey said they use their phone for directions, recommendations or other information about their location. This includes finding doctors near their home.
Local healthcare professional directories and local business directories are virtually free. Doctors need to claim and optimize listings by including them in their information and website, as this way more people can learn about their services and, in addition, help rank their website in search engines.
Patients show great confidence in the impartial reviews and opinions of other patients when choosing doctors. Research shows that 77% of consumers use online reviews as the first step in finding a doctor. This is done either on sites such as Google My Business and doctoranytime.gr, or on other sites / blogs that inform about the health of their members.
Because patient evaluations, as mentioned, carry so much weight, it is important for physicians to monitor and respond appropriately to any negative reviews. A recent Bright Local survey showed that a single negative rating can cost a business an average of 30 customers.
