Search is evolving. Patients no longer only click through traditional Google results. Increasingly, they are using Google’s Search Generative Experience (SGE), Bing Copilot, and voice assistants such as Siri and Alexa to get instant answers in natural language. These AI tools generate summaries based on trusted websites.
If your clinic’s website is not optimised for AI-driven search, you risk being invisible, even if you perform well in traditional SEO rankings. For UK healthcare providers, this could mean missing opportunities to connect with patients actively looking for care.
Patients are already asking AI platforms direct healthcare questions.
AI-generated summaries feature only selected, trusted sources.
Being included builds authority and credibility with patients.
Clinics not optimised for AI risk losing visibility to competitors.
We format your website content to directly answer common patient questions, using natural language that mirrors how people search and speak.
We add structured data for services, practitioners, locations, and FAQs. This makes it easier for AI platforms to identify and reference your content.
AI systems prioritise authoritative, reliable sources. We align your content with E-E-A-T principles (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) and ensure all claims are evidence-based and compliant with ASA and GMC standards.
We optimise your Google Business Profile and local directory listings with accurate information, service categories, and booking links to help AI tools surface your clinic for local searches.
We create blogs, Q&As, and resources designed for patients and written in plain English. These provide clear, safe information that AI systems are more likely to summarise.
AI search technology is changing rapidly. We track where your clinic appears in AI results and adapt strategies as the landscape evolves.
All updates are reviewed against ASA and CAP Code rules, GMC guidance, CQC expectations, and UK GDPR to ensure visibility never comes at the expense of compliance.
When patients ask AI tools for “GP near me” or “dermatologist London,” your clinic can be the one referenced.
Being included in AI-generated results positions your practice as a trusted authority.
Capture patients earlier in their decision-making process.
Stay competitive as search evolves without costly rebuilds.
AI optimisation complements SEO, Google Ads, and reputation management.
AI search visibility ensures your clinic appears in answers generated by AI platforms such as Google SGE and Bing Copilot. These systems pull from trusted websites and provide direct responses to patient questions. Without optimisation, your clinic may be excluded, even if you rank highly in traditional search.
Yes. AI optimisation builds on SEO rather than replacing it. SEO helps your clinic appear in Google’s listings, while AI optimisation ensures your content is structured to be referenced in AI-generated answers. Both are essential.
An AI-ready website includes:
Not necessarily. Many existing websites can be updated with schema, FAQs, and optimised content. A rebuild is only recommended if your current site is outdated, insecure, or non-compliant with UK standards.
Yes. Patients using AI tools often have strong intent to act. Appearing in these results means you capture their attention earlier, increasing the likelihood they contact your clinic.
We monitor relevant keywords and queries across AI platforms, track your online visibility, and analyse enquiry patterns. You will receive regular updates showing when your clinic is cited in AI summaries and how this contributes to bookings.
