Three measures
Acquisition spend ÷ new patients
Reconcile advertising, agency and campaign costs against new patients recorded by your practice.
(Attributed gross profit − marketing cost) ÷ marketing cost
Use collected revenue and your practice’s margin to assess the return after marketing costs.
Booked appointments ÷ qualified enquiries
Track the same enquiry cohort through follow-up and booking, with a consistent reporting period.
Measured in client accounts
A Google Ads account snapshot connects spend, visibility, clicks and recorded conversion actions in one view.
Original reportFigures from one account snapshot, 1 Jan – 15 Apr 2024. Conversions are platform actions, not confirmed patients.
Cost per lead divides spend by enquiries. Cost per acquired patient divides spend by the new patients your practice actually records — the number that matters for return.
Your marketing spend for the period, the qualified enquiries it produced, how many became booked appointments, and the collected revenue and margin for those patients.

Why choose us
Six reasons hospitals, clinics, and doctors pick a healthcare-only firm over a generalist agency.
It's all we do. No retail, no fintech — the whole team thinks in patient journeys, clinical trust, and the way people actually choose a doctor.
Receptionists, WhatsApp triage, and attribution built in-house — we answer patients in seconds and tie every click to a booked appointment.
HIPAA-aware handling, ASCI-reviewed creative, and GDPR/DPDP sign-off on every campaign — our standard, not an upcharge or an afterthought.
The senior who pitched you stays on the engagement. No bait-and-switch to juniors learning on your budget.
Patient-level attribution across calls, forms, and walk-ins. Monthly reports show booked patients — not just clicks and impressions.
We name our clients and show the work. Quarterly reviews with the numbers attached, every cycle.

Practical notes & supporting evidence
Start hereYour investment, measured against your records.
Establish contextUse the published scope and relevant source material
Choose the next stepFollow the linked resource and assign an owner
Read ROI examples as calculations with explicit inputs. Check which costs are included and whether the outcome represents enquiries, attended appointments or collected revenue. Use your own figures to reproduce a scenario before applying it to a budget decision. A plausible example does not establish the return another practice will achieve.
Begin with the question you need to answer, then choose the most appropriate destination in this collection. A guide explains a method, a checklist supports a repeatable review, a calculator explores assumptions and a case file documents a particular engagement. Reading them as interchangeable resources can create confusion. If you need to brief a supplier, start with the relevant service or framework. If you need to assess evidence, start with the source reports and the limits stated alongside the example.
Use the collection to narrow the investigation rather than adding every possible task to a marketing plan. Identify the stage where progress is blocked: discovery, understanding the service, making contact, arranging an appointment or following up. Choose a resource that addresses that stage and keep a short note of the evidence you need. A focused review is easier to act on than a long list of unrelated recommendations, particularly when clinical approvals and operational changes involve different people.
Document the local conditions before adopting an example. Include the service mix, available clinicians, languages, appointment process and existing digital assets. A method used by a hospital network may need to be simplified for a solo practice; a single-clinic process may need explicit location ownership when used by a chain. Keep those adaptations visible in the brief. The resource provides a way to organise the work, while your own records establish whether its assumptions fit.
Assign a person to each next action and define how completion will be checked. Editorial tasks need content and approval ownership, technical tasks need a release review and measurement tasks need a named source account. Keep evidence attached to the relevant decision instead of relying on a general claim that the programme is performing well. Revisit the plan when the service, market or operational capacity changes. The related links on this page let you move from an overview into the detail needed for that next action.
