Service brief

Google Ads for Healthcare in Richmond

We serve United States providers from our team in Gurugram, India.

Search and Performance Max campaigns built for appointment volume, with the negative-keyword discipline that keeps a healthcare account from paying for symptom research. In Richmond, that means working against the local results, not a national average.

Consults in Richmond run around $200-450, so the economics of a booked patient here are specific. We model cost-per-booked-patient against that number, not a borrowed benchmark from another market.

The queries we build toward: "google ads for healthcare", "ppc for doctors", "medical google ads agency", "hospital google ads" — each qualified to Richmond and to your specialty rather than chased at national scale.
