Mistakes to avoid
- No booking option. Patients leave if they must call during busy hours.
- Copy-pasted medical content. Write original, accurate pages reviewed by the doctor.
- Exaggerated claims. Avoid "guaranteed cure" or "100% success". Follow NMC guidance on professional conduct.
- Patient photos without consent. Always take written consent for before/after images.
