Where patients leak
Where dermatology practices in Richmond lose new patients
Ad rules that limit what you can say
Ad platforms restrict health and personal-attribute targeting and wording. Ads that imply a viewer has a condition, or promise a result, are rejected or draw complaints.
Medical and cosmetic demand mixed together
Skin checks, acne, eczema and psoriasis visits are searched differently from injectables, lasers and skin rejuvenation. One generic page for all of it serves neither group well.
Long waits that send patients elsewhere
When the next opening is far off, patients keep searching. Clear information on timing, an easy waitlist and fast answers keep them from booking the next listing down.
