Problem: Many dental clinics rely solely on patient referrals. While valuable, word-of-mouth alone limits growth and visibility in competitive markets.
Solution: Combine patient referrals with a structured online presence. Encourage reviews, maintain a user-friendly website, and share educational content that builds trust.
Comparison:
Word-of-mouth only → slow growth
Over-promotion online → mistrust and noise
Balanced approach → credibility and steady new patient flow
Actionable Recommendation: Ask 3 satisfied patients each month for online reviews and share one educational post per week on your website or social media.
