Clear professional information. Accessible online.

A doctor's digital presence should help patients and professional contacts understand who the doctor is, their speciality, practice location and how to contact the practice.

Direct Answer

What is a doctor's digital presence?

A doctor's digital presence is the professional information about the doctor and their practice that people can access online.

It can include a professional profile, qualifications, speciality, areas of practice, clinic or hospital associations, address, timings, contact information, location links and other relevant practice information.

A clear digital presence is different from making exaggerated promotional claims. Its first job is to make accurate professional information easy to understand and access.

Important Difference

Professional digital presence vs generic digital marketing

Professional Digital Presence

  • Starts with accurate doctor and practice information.
  • Helps people understand the doctor's speciality and professional role.
  • Creates a stable online information source.
  • Can support professional networking and healthcare communication.
  • Does not require exaggerated claims.

Digital Marketing

  • May focus on campaigns, reach, advertisements or enquiries.
  • Can use social media, search advertising or other promotional channels.
  • May be useful for specific objectives but is a different function.
  • Performance depends on multiple factors.
  • It should not replace accurate professional information.

Connected OM Infrastructure

More than a standalone doctor page

For specialist practices and hospitals, digital presence can also support wider healthcare PR and professional relationship services.
