- Campaigns split out by condition — hemorrhoids, fissures, cancer, IBD
- Condition pages written in plain language that turn a quiet search into a booked visit
- Full visibility from first search or referral to the day surgery is scheduled

Why Growth Stalls
Why colorectal practices hit a ceiling.
Surgical skill fills the OR, not next month's consult calendar. Here's where most colorectal practices leak patients.
-
GI referrals swing with someone else's schedule
Gastroenterologists send you most of your cancer and polyp workups, and that's a good thing.
-
Rectal bleeding gets Googled at midnight, not mentioned at the next physical
Patients sit on rectal symptoms for weeks, researching quietly on their phone before they say a word to anyone.
-
Patients can't tell you apart from the general surgeon down the street
Plenty of general surgeons treat routine hemorrhoids too, so if your site doesn't say ASCRS board certification, fellowship training, and colon-cancer or IBD case volume out loud, patients assume any surgeon will do.
-
Your hardest, highest-value cases end up with a competitor
Rectal cancer, IBD surgery, and pouch reconstruction take the most training and carry the most at stake for the patient.

It's been a while — here's the easy way to get back on the calendar.
Recall
Proof, not promises
See what actually fills the calendar.
One dashboard connects every inquiry — call, form, or referral — to whether it turned into a booked consult, and what it cost to get there.
Lead Tracking Nothing slips through
Every patient contact — a scheduling-page form, a phone call, a referral fax from a GI office — gets logged and followed up automatically, so a patient who almost booked doesn't just disappear.
Know exactly where each patient came from
Every inquiry is tagged with the ad, search term, or referring office behind it, so you can see which of those is actually filling your calendar.
Automatic follow-up, no extra front-desk work
A patient who fills out a form but doesn't book gets a friendly email or text nudge on autopilot until they schedule or opt out.
ROI Tracking What's actually paying off
Every booked consult gets tied back to whatever produced it, so you know your real cost per patient by condition — and can put more budget behind what's actually booking cases.
Cost per booked consult, not per click
Ad spend, calls, and bookings roll up into one real number.
ROI broken out by condition
Cancer, IBD, and routine hemorrhoid consults are tracked separately, so you can see exactly which case types your marketing dollars are actually winning.
Call Analysis No booked case lost to a bad call
A lot of patients and referring offices still pick up the phone before they book anything — and a call that gets fumbled is a case walking to a competitor.
Every call graded on outcome
Each call gets scored on whether it turned into a booking, so the patterns costing you patients are easy to spot and fix.
Missed call gets an instant text back
A call that goes unanswered triggers a text within seconds, so the patient hears from you before they dial the next practice on their list.
Review Generation Proof that gets consults booked
Someone deciding who operates on them for a sensitive condition checks reviews before they check anything else — and referring physicians notice your rating too.
Timed to the moment patients are happiest
Shortly after a procedure or visit, each patient gets one low-pressure text or email asking for a Google review.
Every new review shows up in one feed
Reviews across Google and elsewhere land in a single feed, so you can respond quickly and keep an eye on the rating patients are judging you by.

Marketing for colorectal surgery, without the mystery
Pricing is public, and it's the same formula for every specialty we work with. Google Ads management runs 10% of your monthly ad budget, with a $600/month minimum — we never mark up your ad spend, so 100% of your budget goes to Google. SEO runs $50 per page per month, with a 10-page minimum. Custom websites are one-time projects from $1,500 to $20,000+ (see /websites for the breakdown). Setup is $0 and it's month-to-month — no contract. Send us your practice details and a written proposal lands in your inbox within one business day.
If a slow month from your GI referral network means a slow consult calendar, if patients searching hemorrhoid or bleeding symptoms are landing on a competitor's site instead of yours, or if you can't say what a booked consult actually costs you, a specialty-focused agency is worth the spend. When referrals alone already keep your OR schedule full, it's fair to hold off.
This means one team owns your website and condition-specific pages, runs Google Ads toward the cases you actually want more of, builds local SEO and AI-search visibility, and keeps recall and review requests going out automatically after every visit — with a single calendar and a single report to show for it.
Find one that actually understands the specialty — they should know the difference between a screening colonoscopy patient and a rectal cancer referral, track cost per booked consult rather than raw clicks, publish real pricing instead of “call for a quote,” and make sure your site, ad accounts, and patient records stay yours, not theirs.
Google Ads can get your practice in front of a patient who's searching today within a couple of weeks. SEO and AI-search visibility take longer to build — figure 3 to 6 months before it's carrying real weight — while your GI and PCP referral pipeline continues covering the calendar in the meantime.
Rather than splitting your marketing across five vendors who never talk to each other, this is one team running your site, ads, SEO, AI search, email, and reviews together. Pricing is posted publicly, nothing is under contract, and setup costs nothing. Everything — the site, the ad accounts, the patient data — stays titled to your practice, not to us. And the first 30 days come with no bill if you're not seeing what you expected.
That's the work we lean into hardest. Rectal cancer, Crohn's and ulcerative colitis surgery, and pouch reconstruction are the highest-stakes, highest-value cases in the specialty, so we build dedicated condition pages and campaigns aimed at the patients — and the oncologists or gastroenterologists — searching for someone who handles that level of case, not generic hemorrhoid traffic.
Yes — that's a real, sizable slice of colorectal search traffic. Rectal bleeding and hemorrhoid symptoms get researched quietly, sometimes for weeks, and never turn into a phone call because the patient feels awkward saying it out loud. We write pages and ad copy in plain, unembarrassed language so the patient feels comfortable enough to actually book.
Yes. Call, form, and online-scheduling tracking is live from day one, so you can see cost per booked consult broken out by source — whether that's a symptom search, a “colorectal surgeon near me” search, or a referral-adjacent term.
Yes, and we're not trying to replace them. GI and primary-care referrals are the backbone of most colorectal practices — we build the self-search channel as an addition to that relationship, not a substitute for it, so your calendar isn't riding on one referral source.
Everything stays yours — the website, the brand files, the ad accounts, the patient records. It's titled to your practice from the day we start, and if we ever part ways, all of it goes with you, no exceptions.
Most colorectal surgery sites launch in about 2 to 4 weeks, depending on how much content and photography you already have on hand and how quickly we get feedback back from you. You'll have a real timeline before we start, not a moving target.
