01AI search visibility — what Claude recommends

Claude names this practice for 1 of the money procedure.

When a patient asks Claude (with live web search) for a plastic surgeon in Houston, it cites this practice once across our queries — best position #4. AI search is the fastest-growing patient-referral channel and the one with the least competition. These are the procedures it recommends them for:

cosmetic dermatologist

Source: ChatGPT and Claude, both with live web search — the same grounded answers patients get, not training-data guesses. Queried across the Houston metro on the money procedures.

The FixAI visibility

Claude already cites Dr. Houston for 1 procedure — the work is to widen that lead and lock in citations before competitors catch up, while AI search is still uncontested.

07Organic search vs. the Google map pack

Where Village Dermatology Houston ranks — organic search vs. the local map pack.

Village Dermatology Houston hits #12 in the map pack at its strongest location — but that's proximity to one office, not metro reach. Across the metro the website barely ranks organically, and organic is the visibility that travels beyond the immediate area. The geo-grid below shows the real metro coverage.

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 96/100 best-practices.

The FixSite speed

At 40/100 on mobile and a 14.6 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.

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. Houston sits behind Lift Plastic Surgery 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.
