Situation

This multi-specialty hospital had strong clinical capabilities but was being outranked in Google Maps by competitors with weaker care outcomes but better digital optimisation. Unaddressed negative reviews had suppressed the Google rating, and appointments could only be booked by phone through a frequently busy front desk — leading to high abandonment. No digital promotion existed for individual specialties or doctors, leaving significant patient acquisition potential untapped.

Intervention

MagicWorks implemented a three-pillar strategy: local search dominance, structured reputation recovery, and frictionless appointment conversion. The Google Business Profile was optimised with complete department and doctor listings plus citation building across 40+ directories. Specialty-specific Google Ads campaigns — Cardiology, Orthopaedics, Gynaecology, Paediatrics — ran with appointment booking as the conversion goal. An automated post-visit SMS workflow delivered direct Google review links to satisfied patients, with satisfaction triage prioritising high-value responders. A specialty-specific booking widget was integrated across the website and Google Business Profile, with WhatsApp confirmation for every booking.

Result

Google rating recovered to 4.3 stars. Appointment bookings increased 50%. The hospital now generates 1,100+ OPD bookings per month through digital channels, with appointment abandonment significantly reduced through online booking integration across all specialties.
