Why Physicians Need To Claim Their Google My Business

Congratulations Doctors! You finished medical school and your fellowship and now have joined the group of your dreams.

One thing I want to ask you to do is to go to Google My Business and claim your name and your specialty.

Why do you want to do this?

It's because people look for specialty doctors, and they look for doctors by name. Most people don't seek out names of practices. They seek out the names of doctors. So you can optimize the page for what you're focusing on, people can leave reviews for you, and you gain exposure for your practice and yourself.

Here are perfect examples of a listing for orthopedic surgeons with their area of specialty.
