Dentist-founded healthcare web and marketing firm with a dedicated manager per practice
About DoctorsInternet
DoctorsInternet is a healthcare marketing company with its head office at 800 Westchester Avenue in Rye Brook, New York. The business is run by doctors for doctors, and two dentists, James Gelfand and Joshua Gindea, founded it. It has been operating since 2010 and has more than 3,200 clients in over 40 states. Dentistry is its largest market, but it also serves optometry, podiatry, veterinary, physical therapy and medical offices.
For dental practices the work starts with the website. The company builds custom, mobile-responsive sites with unlimited pages and edits, hosts them on its own servers, with a typical build time of about three weeks. On the search side it offers keyword research into how patients look for dental care, structured data, unique copy on each service page, off-page authority building, Google Maps optimization, directory listings and voice search. It also offers a page speed guarantee of 90 or higher on mobile and desktop and practices can expect early SEO movement within one to three months.
Around that core sit reputation tools for generating and showcasing reviews, personalized blogs, social media, video, email blasts, call tracking, Google and Facebook Ads with retargeting, HIPAA-compliant online forms and an automated recall system called 365 Schedule Manager. Every account is assigned a marketing manager and a project manager, and clients receive regular progress reports used to adjust campaigns.
The firm fits single-office general dentists as well as specialists and groups. Its showcase includes multi-site practices such as Skyline Smiles, 24/7 Dental and Blue Coral Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, plus orthodontic, periodontal, endodontic and oral surgery offices such as Bayview Orthodontics and Ramapo Oral and Maxillo-Facial Surgery. Testimonials come from Kenneth W. Arida DDS, Dental Village Associates, Emmet Dental and Newport Pediatric Dentistry, and most of them name the individual manager who handled the account.
Outside reviews are positive. It is rated 5.0 on Google from 246 reviews, 4.8 on UpCity from 18, and 5.0 on Clutch from 23.
