Exactly what the leaders do to win.
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.
Here’s who AI names instead
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”).
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. Aliotta can own this channel before the market does.

07Organic search vs. the Google map pack
Where Dr. Rachel Aliotta ranks — map pack vs. organic.
Dr. Rachel Aliotta shows in Maps but outside the 3-pack (best #5); the organic website peaks at #5. Both are winnable.
08Site speed & Core Web Vitals
Site speed is the clearest technical opportunity.
Google’s Lighthouse scores the site 0–100 and speed is a confirmed ranking factor — we fix it. On mobile the site scores 40/100 for performance — the main area to address — alongside 100/100 SEO and 77/100 best-practices.

At 40/100 on mobile and a 5.5 s largest-paint, the site is slow enough that both Google and patients feel it. Speed is a confirmed ranking factor and a direct booking-rate lever — every second of load time costs consults.
Core Web Vitals remediation — caching, image compression, lazy-loading, deferred scripts.
Fix this09Local visibility — live geo-grid
Their map pack, mapped — top-10 across 22.4% of the metro.
We ran “plastic surgeon” from 49 GPS points across the metro and recorded the practice’s local-pack rank at each. The result, in one picture: top-3 in 4.1% of the area and top-10 in 22.4%, strongest around 1201 11th Ave S Fl 2 and tapering toward the edges of the metro.
10Google Business Profile
The Google Business Profile.
The free listing behind the map pack — for a local practice, the single most valuable thing to get right.
What the listing has
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.
Dr. Aliotta 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 highest-impact moves — easiest wins first.
When a patient asks ChatGPT or Claude for a plastic 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.
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.
Local-pack reach is thin — top-10 across only 22.4% of the metro, averaging #8. Profile completeness, categories, review velocity and citation consistency are exactly what move a practice up the 3-pack.
Mobile performance is 40/100 — usually the hero image plus render-blocking assets. A focused fix raises it without a rebuild, and speed feeds both Google rankings and booking conversions.
★The verdict
The bottom line.
Dr. Rachel Aliotta shows developing search authority and a developing map-pack position. The clearest opportunity is mobile performance (40/100).
