ONLINE MARKETING FOR DOCTORS PODCAST

Competition is fierce, patient expectations are rising and marketing costs are climbing. In this episode of the OMD TV & Podcast Show, Huyen shares four pivotal shifts that will help your clinic thrive in 2026 without resorting to discounts or burning money on ads. She also introduces a bonus strategy on leveraging AI to transform how you attract and convert patients. What You’ll Learn Shift #1 – Patient‑Centric vs. Money‑Centric: Why a “patients for life” mindset creates loyalty, repeat business and referrals that shield you from competitors. Shift #2 – Command Premium Pricing: How moving away from discounts and adopting premium pricing attracts high‑value clients who happily pay for quality and rave about your services. Shift #3 – Use the Secret Weapon: The power of a loyalty or rewards program to encourage repeat visits, referrals, reviews and social shares from your existing patients. Shift #4 – Retention Is the New Patient Attraction: Why it costs 7–12× more to attract a new patient than to keep an existing one, and how focusing on retention can make your practice more profitable and predictable. Bonus Shift – Leverage AI: How AI chatbots and voice assistants provide 24/7 engagement, answer enquiries instantly, automate follow‑ups and double or triple conversion rates while freeing your staff to focus on care. Key Takeaways Building lasting relationships with existing patients is more profitable than constantly chasing new leads. Premium experiences justify premium prices and attract clients who become ambassadors for your brand. Structured rewards programs turn your satisfied patients into your most powerful marketing channel. Retention strategies deliver better conversion rates (70–90 %) compared to new enquiries (5–20 %). AI isn’t a gimmick – it’s a tool that keeps you responsive round the clock and prevents you from losing leads to faster‑moving competitors.
