2. How to create a Professional Online Presence
A professional social media account is often what a patient may come across first when searching online for a healthcare provider. Posts, images, and videos attached to one’s account may serve as the first impression and influence a patient seeking care with that provider. A professional account should use your real name, photograph, and institutional affiliations. When engaging in discussion or commenting on other posts, the same level of honesty and courtesy should be extended to the online environment as would be expected in the clinical setting. One should consider separation of personal and professional social media accounts to aid in maintaining personal boundaries. In general, friend or follow requests from patients should not be accepted on personal social media accounts. Direct patient contact is not encouraged and should be referred to the traditional communication methods instead
3. Importance of Social Media in Reputation Management
Social media has redefined communication between patients and physicians. The online presence of ophthalmologists and clinical practices can serve as an avenue for patients to connect to their healthcare provider and simultaneously facilitate growth of the practice.The Pew Research Center Surveys in 2018 demonstrated that approximately 88% of those aged 18 to 50 years use some form of social media. Physicians should know that many patients may still prefer traditional methods of obtaining medical information and communicating with their physician, such as in-person visits or telephone calls. Reviews of practices on social media may be helpful in obtaining feedback about patient care and visits. This could be applied to further improve the patient experience and optimize the flow and efficiency of ophthalmic practices.
Social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and Linked In are useful for building and maintaining a robust online presence.
4. Is SEO Beneficial for Ophthalmologists?
Ophthalmologists can use search engine optimization (SEO) to enhance their online presence and boost their bottom line.
Google search engine results take into account whether content is dynamic or static. Ranking in Search Engine depends on how much content and what keywords are being used. Blogging is an appealing way to create constantly changing content.
5. Why you should start today?
If Opthalmologists choose to wait, they will always be behind their competitors, meaning they won’t come up as high on a search engine. But it doesn’t mean your practice is better, it does factor in when people are choosing a surgeon or doctor. You have to own your online reputation, not run from it.

We have been strategising for opthalmologists and vision surgery practises over 10 years to help their business to grow ethically. We’ll be your reliable resource for confronting the unique challenges of your marketplace, and for effectively attracting the referrals, patients and cases that you want.
We have partnered with providers and practices throughout the United States to successfully promote their vision care practices, attract vision correction patients, and extend their brand recognition and professional reputation in the community. Let us help you too.
Promote your ophthalmology practice using our in-depth marketing and branding services.
We design and implement an ophthalmology marketing and advertising plan that draws patients to your office through referrals, and also promotes your services directly to the public.
Prospective patients are increasingly aware of their choices among qualified providers. This makes it essential for ophthalmologists to stand out from the crowd by communicating a unique, positive brand message. Ophthalmology practices often turn to us for value-driven branding solutions that offer distinction in the marketplace. Brand recognition, in the battle for the mind of the public, is an important means of engagement and winning new patients, as well as establishing and growing professional reputation and recognition.
Establishing yourself online means a lot more than having a professional website.
Most people who are considering LASIK surgery (and other vision care services) turn to the Internet to research the procedure, investigate costs and choose a surgeon. Successful practices recognize that their online presence is their new front door. This can include a contemporary website, marketing-smart Facebook pages, content-rich blog, informative social media and other marketing tools. Our experience demonstrates that if you do not have a compelling and informative presence online, you’re invisible to the prospective patient.
Expanding your referral base is essential to strong growth. We specialize in making that happen.
A team of our agency is dedicated to helping you protect and expand that referral base. After considering your practice’s current referral pool, we will develop and institute a reliable referral system that spreads your brand to new patient sources while nurturing your current network. In addition, a custom-fit service plan and ongoing representation in the field will foster new relationships and resources that help you win new business referrals in the future.
