Should each doctor in your clinic have their own Google Business Profile, or should you stick with one listing for the entire practice?

This is a common and confusing local SEO question for clinics, and getting it wrong can lead to duplicate listings, split reviews, ranking issues, and even lost patient inquiries.

In this episode, you’ll learn the difference between practitioner and practice listings, when it actually makes sense for a doctor to have their own profile, and when it can hurt your visibility instead of helping it.

You’ll also learn:

  •  How multiple listings impact your rankings and reviews 
  •  What to do when a doctor leaves, but their listing still shows your address 
  •  How to clean up duplicate or outdated profiles without damaging your main listing 
  •  Simple steps to protect your clinic’s visibility moving forward 

If your clinic has multiple providers or plans to grow, this is a must-listen before you create or update any listings.
