Medical SEO & GEO Case Studies for Doctors & Clinics
See how GEO for Doctors helps medical, dental, and functional-medicine practices get found across Google, Google Maps, and AI search engines — and turn that visibility into booked new-patient calls.
Real practices. Measurable growth.
Patients no longer just scroll Google — they ask AI assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google’s AI Overviews who to trust. We make medical practices visible and credible everywhere patients search, then convert that visibility into appointments. Here’s what that looked like for three New York practices across very different specialties.
Featured clients
Cosmetic Dental NY
Visit websiteThe challenge
A respected Midtown Manhattan cosmetic and implant dentistry practice was being out-ranked by larger dental groups for high-value searches like “cosmetic dentist NYC” and “dental implants Manhattan” — and was effectively invisible in the AI-generated answers patients increasingly rely on.
What we did
- Rebuilt and optimized the Google Business Profile around the practice’s highest-value dental searches
- Restructured service and procedure pages around real patient search intent
- Added dental, FAQ and review schema so search engines and AI models read the practice clearly
- Built local citations and authority signals across trusted health directories
- Optimized entities for GEO so the practice is referenced in AI Overviews and ChatGPT
The outcome: the practice now ranks in the top three for 18 priority dental searches and surfaces in AI-generated answers across New York City — turning high-intent Manhattan search demand into booked new-patient calls.
Salerno Wellness

An established functional and integrative medicine practice had deep clinical expertise, but it wasn’t translating into online visibility — or into the AI recommendations patients now lean on when they search for root-cause, whole-person care across New York.
What we did
- Built a Local SEO foundation targeting high-intent functional-medicine searches in Manhattan
- Rebuilt condition and treatment pages around how patients actually describe their symptoms
- Implemented medical and FAQ schema for richer, AI-readable search results
- Launched a review-velocity strategy to strengthen local trust signals
- Optimized for GEO so AI assistants surface the practice for functional-medicine questions
The outcome: the practice now ranks in the top three for 12 functional-medicine searches and appears when patients ask AI assistants where to start with integrative care — a steady, compounding source of new-patient calls.
WFM NYC — Westside Family Medicine
Visit websiteThe challenge
A multi-location primary care group was competing with hospital systems and urgent-care chains for everyday “doctor near me” and primary-care searches across Manhattan and Brooklyn — with little presence in the Google Maps pack or in AI answers.
What we did
- Optimized each location’s Google Business Profile for procedure- and neighborhood-level searches
- Built Local SEO for “near me,” primary-care and urgent-care intent across both boroughs
- Implemented medical and local schema consistently across every location
- Created clear, trustworthy content for preventive and primary-care services
- Optimized for GEO so AI engines recommend the practice for family-medicine questions
The outcome: new-patient calls grew 63% and the group now ranks in the top three for nine core searches across its Manhattan and Brooklyn locations.
