Google promotion case study for Dr. Solomiia Puchkova: +73% patient inquiries in 1.5 years

When it comes to promoting medical services on Google, content expertise, verified physician credentials, factual accuracy and the overall trustworthiness of the site all matter enormously. That's why, for projects like this, simply optimizing pages for search queries isn't enough.

Working on the site for Dr. Solomiia Puchkova, the Sprava Agency team combined SEO, local marketing, site structure improvements and work on E-E-A-T signals. This set of measures boosted the site's search visibility, grew organic traffic and increased the number of inquiries from new patients.

Dr. Puchkova: private ENT specialist and audiologist

Dr. Solomiia Puchkova treats both adult and pediatric patients in Lviv, offering a wide range of medical services, including:

  • ENT and audiology consultations;
  • diagnosis and treatment of ENT conditions:
  • hearing tests;
  • sinus, tonsil and ear canal irrigation, earwax removal;
  • removal of foreign objects from the ENT area;
  • individual selection, sale, fitting and servicing of hearing aids.

Site status at the start of the project, and expectations

When the client came to Sprava Agency, the site was bringing in almost no new patients. It wasn't optimized for search queries or built around the target audience's needs, and it contained very little content. On top of that, the Google Business Profile hadn't been optimized either. Patients were booking appointments mainly through personal recommendations, which made attendance at the doctor's office unpredictable.

Dr. Puchkova's goal was to rank the site among Google's top results for key search terms among users in Lviv, increase bookings made through the site, and build trust in her as a medical expert.

What we did to promote Dr. Puchkova's site

We built the promotion strategy around local marketing and took the following steps:

  1. Audited the site and put together recommendations for fixing technical issues and improving speed.
  2. Built out the keyword set and clustered it by service and search intent.
  3. Collected high-volume search terms as well as queries with strong commercial intent, such as "audiologist Lviv appointment," "hearing test Lviv adults," and "private ENT consultation Lviv."
  4. Reworked the site structure, adding separate landing pages for each service instead of one general page (for example, "Complete Hearing Assessment," "Hearing Aid Fitting"), plus dedicated pages for treatment-related queries (for example, "Nosebleed Treatment," "Chronic Tonsillitis Treatment").
  5. Audited the site's existing content and built a content plan. Optimized existing pages by refining the copy around target queries, filling in meta tags, headings and image alt attributes. Added an XML sitemap to improve indexing and carried out internal linking.
  6. Reviewed the site's usability and compiled a list of recommendations for making it easier for the target audience to use.

Optimizing the Google Business Profile included:

  • adjusting the profile name to match search queries;
  • rewriting the business description around core services and location;
  • adding current photos of the doctor, the office and the equipment;
  • listing the full range of services with descriptions for each.

Rankings for the target queries climbed steadily throughout the project. Keywords that previously didn't show up in search results at all, or ranked below position 30, gradually moved onto Google's first page. The ranking growth can be tracked on the chart below.

From November 2024 through April 2026:

  • organic traffic to the site grew by 140%;
  • the number of conversions increased by 73%.

In other words, the combination of improved rankings, higher traffic and usability work translated directly into more patient inquiries - a key indicator of how traffic growth converts into real patients.

When promoting the services of a specialist in such a narrow field, it was crucial to really understand how patients think and make decisions. The niche might look simple at first glance, but combining medical accuracy with search optimization is no easy task. Thanks to detailed feedback from the client, especially around the medical precision of the copy, we were able to hit our targets.

At the start, the project already had some traffic and rankings, but the room for growth was much bigger. We focused mainly on commercial queries tied to ENT services. We also paid close attention to E-E-A-T signals: we added the doctor's license from Ukraine's Ministry of Health to the site, which is an important trust factor for Google. To build domain authority, we ran a steady, planned program of link acquisition from relevant industry sites.

Conclusion

This case confirms that local SEO remains one of the most effective tools for attracting patients to private doctors and medical centers. Comprehensive work across the site, Google Business Profile, content and technical optimization doesn't just improve search rankings - it also increases the number of people walking through the doctor's door.
