What kind of patients do you want?

We don't just send you patients.
We send you the right ones.

Not all new patients are equal. A practice chasing check-up volume needs a different campaign to one growing its cosmetic pipeline. We build campaigns around the patient type that moves your practice forward.

Private check-up patients

High-value, recurring revenue. We target patients actively looking for a new NHS-to-private switch or a better private practice in your area.

↑ Best for growing practice revenue base

Cosmetic patients

Teeth whitening, composite bonding, veneers. High-intent patients who've already decided they want treatment — we put your practice in front of them first.

↑ High average case value

NHS to private conversion

Patients currently on NHS who are ready to switch. We target dissatisfied NHS patients looking for a better experience and are willing to pay for it.

↑ Fastest way to grow private revenue

Emergency patients

Patients in pain who need to be seen now. High conversion rate, and a strong opportunity to convert emergency patients into long-term private patients.

↑ Immediate revenue + long-term retention

How we attract new patients

Every channel.
One consistent pipeline.

The most successful practices don't rely on one source of new patients. We build a coordinated multi-channel system that generates consistent new patient flow month after month.

Google Ads

Capturing patients actively searching "dentist near me", "private dentist [your city]", and treatment-specific terms. The highest-intent, fastest-converting new patient channel.

Local SEO & Google Business Profile

Dominating the local map pack so your practice appears first when patients search for a dentist in your area. Organic — no cost per click, compounds over time.

Meta Ads

Facebook and Instagram campaigns reaching local patients before they're searching — building awareness, trust, and top-of-mind presence for your practice in your area.

Review generation

Systematic review generation across Google and NHS Choices. More reviews mean better local rankings and more trust for patients choosing between practices.

Referral & reactivation

Systematic patient referral programmes and reactivation campaigns targeting lapsed patients — your lowest cost-per-acquisition new patient source.

NHS to private conversion

The single biggest revenue
opportunity for most practices.

NHS dentistry is under pressure. Waiting lists are long. Patient satisfaction is falling. And millions of patients across the UK are actively looking for a better alternative — they just need to find your practice first.

We build targeted campaigns that reach dissatisfied NHS patients in your area and position your practice as the obvious private alternative — at the exact moment they're ready to make the switch.

Our process

From first call to
consistent new patient flow.

Step 01

New patient audit

We review where your new patients are currently coming from, what's working, what isn't, and what the local opportunity looks like for your target patient type.

Step 02

Strategy & targeting

We define your ideal new patient profile, the channels that will reach them most effectively, and build a campaign strategy around your growth targets.

Step 03

Launch & optimise

Campaigns go live across your agreed channels. We watch cost-per-lead, booking rate, and patient quality daily — and optimise relentlessly.

Step 04

Report & scale

Monthly reporting shows exactly where your new patients are coming from and what each one cost. What's working gets scaled. What isn't gets fixed.

Common questions

New patient marketing — your questions answered.

How many new patients can we realistically generate per month?

It depends on your location, budget, and patient type. Our Google Ads clients typically see 30–50 qualified new patient enquiries per month. We'll give you a realistic forecast based on your specific market at our discovery call.

What's the difference between an enquiry and a booked patient?

An enquiry is someone who contacts you. A booked patient shows up. We focus on improving both — generating quality enquiries that are more likely to book, and advising on the follow-up process that converts them.

Should I focus on NHS or private new patients?

If growing revenue is the goal, private patients almost always deliver better long-term value. We can help you attract either — or run campaigns specifically designed to convert NHS patients to private over time.

How quickly will I see results?

Google Ads campaigns typically generate their first new patient enquiries within 48–72 hours of launch. SEO and GBP improvements take longer — typically 3–6 months — but build compounding long-term value.

Do you work with practices that already have a full appointment book?

Yes — selective patient growth is a different challenge to building from scratch. We can help you attract higher-value patients specifically, rather than just volume, so your team's time is spent on the cases that matter most.
