Houston paid-search and local SEO agency for private dental and healthcare practices
About PerformancePPX
PerformancePPX, also written Performance PPX or PPX, is a Houston advertising agency for private healthcare practices. Most of its clients and testimonials come from dentistry. The firm is an option for independent practices that do not want a large agency or a corporate healthcare marketing firm. It is a certified healthcare ads specialist, focused on measurable gains in leads, new patients and patient retention.
The founder, Tony, has more than 20 years in market research, digital marketing and online advertising. His past roles include head of performance at GroupM, presales director at Dentsu, and senior positions at comScore and Nielsen. He received a Google Premier Partner award in 2019. No other staff are named, and no founding year is published.
Paid media is the agency's core work. It runs Google campaigns across Search, Maps, Display, Discover, Gmail and YouTube, plus Facebook, Instagram and TikTok ads. Alongside this it offers local search optimisation, technical SEO, Apple Business Connect listings, conversion-rate work and email campaigns. Its blog, Dentist Near Me, covers topics such as Google Ads for dental practices. Seasonal and promotional campaigns are rotated through the year to stop audiences tiring of the same ads.
The main published proof is a case study for Houston Dental Oasis, a general, cosmetic and restorative practice that opened in 2019. PPX combined local search work, targeted PPC, social media and content. User traffic reached 8 times the launch level in month one and 14 times in month two. Revenue was 70 and 90 percent above the same months the previous year. By month three, new patients had tripled and the practice had its best months since opening.
Testimonials on the homepage come from Dr. Amelia Wang, DMD, Dr. Felicia Pranata, DDS, Dr. Sehej Patel, DDS, a registered dental assistant and a dental office manager. Common themes are better local visibility, more calls and bookings, and steady contact with Tony. For one reviewer, revenue doubled and new patients tripled in six months.
The agency suits solo and small group practices that want ad-led growth and are willing to commit for six months. Ad budgets are set with forecasting tools, and the agency's fee is either a retainer or a share of ad spend. Campaigns usually go live within two weeks of creative approval. After the first six months, contracts run month to month.
