Website Redesign for healthcare practices

A website redesign rebuilds an existing site around what customers need now, while protecting the search visibility and enquiries the old site already earns. For healthcare practices, that means getting practitioner profiles, services and conditions treated and fees, rebates and what to expect right, because patients choosing a practitioner and booking appointments want to book an appointment without hunting for information.

What your customers are trying to do

Patients choosing a practitioner and booking appointments want to book an appointment.

A healthcare practice website usually has to handle online appointment booking, new patient forms before the first visit, practitioner and staff recruitment and a page for each clinic location.

Online appointment booking: patients book at night and on weekends when reception is closed.

New patient forms before the first visit: collecting details in advance shortens the first appointment, provided health information is handled with care.

Practitioner and staff recruitment: practices recruit regularly, and candidates check the website first.

A page for each clinic location: patients search for the nearest clinic, so each location needs its own details.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does Website Redesign involve for a healthcare practice?

A website redesign rebuilds an existing site around what customers need now, while protecting the search visibility and enquiries the old site already earns. For a healthcare practice, the work centres on practitioner profiles, services and conditions treated and fees, rebates and what to expect.

Will a redesign hurt our Google rankings?

It can if old URLs are not redirected. Google's site move guidance is to map old URLs to new ones and use permanent redirects, so a redirect plan is a standard part of the redesign.[1]

Can we keep our current platform?

Yes, if it still suits you. A redesign can keep the platform or move to a new one; we recommend based on how you need to manage the site.

Are there advertising rules for healthcare practices?

Yes. Health practitioner advertising is regulated, and Ahpra publishes guidelines and tools, including guidance on testimonials. Check website claims against that guidance; this page does not give legal advice.[2]
