Grow: Google ads

Be the practice that shows up when your ideal patients are actively looking.

Search advertising captures demand at its highest point: the moment a patient types "private knee surgeon London," "dermatologist for acne Manchester," or "plastic surgeon Miami" into Google. These patients have already decided they want help. They're choosing who to contact.

We build and manage Google Ads campaigns for private practices that put you in front of those searches with the right message, and track the outcome all the way to a booked appointment.

This is for you if...

  • You want to grow your practice faster than organic SEO alone will allow.
  • You're launching a new service or procedure and need immediate visibility for relevant searches.
  • You've run Google Ads before and it was unprofitable, you want to understand why and fix it.
  • You want to target specific geographic areas or patient demographics with precision.
  • You're competing with well-established practices and need paid visibility while your organic presence grows.
  • You want reliable attribution from ad click to booked consultation so you can measure true ROI.

See the complete process: How we work

Things practices usually ask us.

What budget do I need for Google Ads to be worthwhile?

For most private practice specialties in a UK or US urban market, a minimum of $2,000–$2,500 or £1,500–£2,500 per month in media spend is needed to generate meaningful, consistent inquiry volume. The right budget for your specific specialty, location, and procedure fees depends on search volume and cost-per-click data we can model for you before you commit.

Why did Google Ads not work for us before?

The most common reasons: the account was structured around too many generic terms rather than high-intent procedure searches; conversion tracking was measuring clicks or form views rather than actual submissions; landing pages weren't matched to the search intent; or the budget was too low to generate statistical significance. We'll audit your account and identify the specific cause.

Do you manage the account or hand it over to us?

We manage the account on your behalf. You have full access and transparency at all times, but the day-to-day management, optimization, and strategy is ours. We provide monthly reporting and a strategy review so you always know what's happening and why.

How do you track ROI, not just leads, but actual revenue?

We set up conversion tracking all the way through your booking system or CRM so we can attribute booked appointments back to the specific campaigns, ad groups, and keywords that generated them. This requires integration with your booking infrastructure, which we'll build as part of the setup.

Can Google Ads work alongside SEO?

They work best together. Paid search gives you immediate visibility while organic SEO builds over months. The search term data from paid campaigns also informs your SEO content strategy with real, proven demand data, which is more reliable than keyword research tools alone.

How long before we see results from Google Ads?

You'll typically see meaningful performance data within the first 2–4 weeks after launch, that's the learning phase referenced in our process. Booked appointments from high-intent search terms often follow within the first 4–8 weeks once conversion tracking and landing pages are dialed in. We'll set realistic expectations for your specialty and market before you commit.
