Where patients leak
Three leaks we look for in Stockton
Competing on a crowded map
Many dentists share the same neighborhoods. Patients tap the first few Maps listings, read the reviews and call. A weak profile or a handful of reviews puts you below the fold.
A busy front desk
Hygiene, check-in and insurance questions fill the day, so new-patient calls roll to voicemail. Callers with an emergency or a quick question book elsewhere.
Paying for the wrong clicks
Dental Google Ads can cost a lot per click. Broad keywords, no negative terms and no call tracking mean budget goes to people looking for free care, jobs or schools instead of a visit.
