Platforms & rules
Where patients research doctors
Patients compare doctors on Google and healthcare directories before they book. Many choose based on star ratings and what reviews say about bedside manner and wait times.
- Google Business Profile reviews
- Healthgrades, Vitals and WebMD
- Zocdoc and booking platforms
- Hospital and health system physician pages
HIPAA-aware by design
- We never confirm that a reviewer is a patient
- Responses never include health or treatment details
- No incentives for reviews and no fake testimonials
- Sensitive replies are approved by your practice first
Why this matters: responding to a review with patient details can breach HIPAA, even if the patient shared them first. Our responses are written to avoid that risk.

FAQ
Reputation management for doctors FAQs
What is reputation management for doctors?
Reputation management for doctors protects how a physician appears online. It covers patient reviews, responses, healthcare directory profiles, Google Business Profile and the search results for your name.
Can doctors respond to negative patient reviews?
Yes, but carefully. Under HIPAA, a response must not confirm that the reviewer is a patient or mention any health information. A short, general reply that invites the person to contact the office is usually safest.
Can you remove bad reviews from Healthgrades or Google?
Platforms remove reviews only when they break their rules, such as fake reviews or reviews about the wrong doctor. We report those and help you respond to the rest within HIPAA limits.
How do doctors get more patient reviews?
Ask every patient, for example with a text or email after the visit that links to your preferred review site. Never offer incentives or ask only happy patients.
Do you work with practices and health systems?
Yes. We work with individual physicians, group practices and larger organizations. See also our healthcare reputation management for hospitals.
How much does reputation management for doctors cost?
Cost depends on the number of locations or professionals, your review volume and whether search results need repair. After a free audit you receive a fixed-scope proposal, so you know the price before any work begins.
