01AI search visibility — the open channel

AI search doesn’t yet recommend this practice for the money procedures.

When a patient asks ChatGPT or Claude (with live web search) for cosmetic surgery in Birmingham, they name competitors — not this practice. AI search is the fastest-growing patient-referral channel, and right now it’s a gap. Being citable in AI results (clean entity data, llms.txt, citable content) is the one channel with almost no competition yet.

Source: ChatGPT and Claude, both with live web search, queried across the Birmingham metro on the money procedures (breast augmentation, facelift, mommy makeover, tummy tuck, rhinoplasty, “best plastic surgeon”).

The FixAI visibility

When a patient asks ChatGPT or Claude for a surgeon in Birmingham, the practices that get named are the ones built to be cited — clean entity data, llms.txt, and citable content. Dr. Harris can own this channel before the market does.

02Social reach

The social profiles we found.

1 public profile detected at audit time. Only one — worth a deeper look; most established practices run several.

05What the site actually ranks for

385 ranked keywords, by search intent.

2% of this traffic is local or procedure searches — the part that books patients in Birmingham.

The largest non-local keyword by estimated traffic is “heating pad for gallbladder attack” — 9,900 searches/mo, ranked #79, tagged generic.

The opportunity — squeeze more reach

The profile is claimed and well-rated; the reach left on the table is in the parts most practices ignore:

  • Only 1 category listed — the market’s leaders run 3–5 (one primary + secondaries). Each category is another set of searches you can surface for.
  • Google Posts: most practices post zero. Weekly posts are a freshness signal the 3-pack rewards — free real estate on your listing.
  • Seed the Q&A: you write the questions and the answers, so a patient’s first impression is your message, not a competitor’s.
  • Services & booking on the profile — let patients book without ever leaving Google.

We rebuild the profile to the standard the market leaders hit — categories, posts, Q&A, services, photos.

The FixThe map pack

Dr. Harris sits behind Dr. Bruce S. Eich, MD and others in the local 3-pack — the box that takes most of the clicks and calls. The Business Profile, review volume, and citation consistency are exactly what move a practice up it.

15The opportunities

Where to focus next.

The moves that compound what's already working.

01

When a patient asks ChatGPT or Claude for a surgeon in Birmingham, this practice isn't named yet. AI search is the fastest-growing, least-contested channel — clean entity data, an llms.txt file and citable content are how you win it.

02

The homepage carries no rich schema markup. Adding it makes pages eligible for star ratings, FAQ drop-downs and richer local/map results — a fast, mechanical win that also helps AI engines read the site.

The verdict

The bottom line.

Adam S. Harris, M.D., LLC shows developing search authority and a developing map-pack position. The fundamentals are sound; the win is converting authority into top rankings.
