— 01 · The challenge

A slow site between patients and appointments.

The group’s website took 4.1 seconds to load on mobile, treatment information was buried and the booking widget sat several clicks deep. Most visitors — searching on phones — left before booking.

Paid campaigns were sending traffic to generic pages, so cost per booking kept climbing.

— 02 · Our approach

Design for the patient, measure every step.

What we changed, in the order we changed it.

Step 01

Patient journey research

Analysed search queries, session recordings and booking data to understand what patients needed before committing.

Step 02

Rebuilt for speed

A lightweight, mobile-first build with optimised images and minimal scripts — scoring 96 on mobile PageSpeed.

Step 03

Treatment & clinic landing pages

Clear pages per treatment and location with pricing, practitioners, reviews and a booking button always in reach.

Step 04

Medical SEO & booking tracking

Added medical schema and trustworthy content, and tracked every booking step so campaigns optimised for confirmed appointments.

— 03 · The results

More patients, lower acquisition cost.

Mobile load time dropped from 4.1s to 1.3s. Online bookings rose 48% and cost per booking fell 29%, as the same ad budget now landed on pages built to convert.

Mobile load time 1.3s Was 4.1s

Measured over Lower is better, in the client’s own ad accounts and CRM.
