🦷 Case Study: How Gaba Dental, Model Town, Ludhiana, Doubled Patient Footfall With Local SEO
📍 Introduction
In 2025, more than 70% of patients in India search online before booking a dental appointment. In cities like Ludhiana, the competition among dental clinics is fierce. If your clinic doesn’t show up on Google Maps for searches like “dentist near me” or “best dentist in Ludhiana”, chances are, your patients are choosing your competitors.
This was exactly the challenge faced by Gaba Dental, Model Town, Ludhiana. Despite offering excellent treatments, their footfall was not matching the quality of their services.

When Gaba Dental approached us, they had:
- ✅ A well-established clinic but low visibility online
- ❌ No optimized Google My Business (GMB) profile
- ❌ Few patient reviews, and none optimized with keywords
- ❌ Weak presence on local directories like Justdial & Practo
In short → they were invisible to potential patients searching on Google.
