Google and Meta ads for medical practices.
Tracked to booked patients.

Northview builds and runs Google and Meta ad campaigns for medical practices around the treatments and appointments you want more of. Every call and form is tracked back to the ad that produced it, and every lead gets answered in about a minute, so ad spend turns into booked patients instead of voicemails.

How do ads work for a medical practice?

For a medical practice, paid ads mean Google Search ads that appear when patients search for a treatment or condition near them, and Meta ads on Facebook and Instagram that reach people likely to need a service before they search. Northview builds the campaigns, the landing pages and the tracking, answers every lead within about a minute, and reports cost per booked patient rather than clicks.

Who this is for

You need this if any of these are true.

Should a practice run Google ads or Meta ads?

They do different jobs. Google Search ads capture patients who are already looking for a treatment, so they convert well but cost more per click. Meta ads create demand among people who match your ideal patient but are not searching yet, which suits elective and cash-pay services like aesthetics and wellness programs. Most practices start with one, based on the treatments they want to grow, and add the other once tracking proves the first.

FAQ

Questions practice owners ask.

Are Google ads worth it for a medical practice?

They usually are when they are tracked to booked patients and every lead gets a fast response. Most wasted ad spend comes from campaigns that send people to a homepage and leads nobody calls back, not from the channel itself.

How much should a practice spend on ads?

It depends on your market, specialty and what a new patient is worth to you. We size a starting budget on the intro call so it can produce enough data to optimize within the first month. Ad spend goes directly to Google and Meta, separate from Northview's fee.

How fast do ads bring in patients?

Google Search ads can produce leads within days of launch. Meta ads usually need a few weeks of testing to find the right creative and audience.

Do you follow healthcare advertising rules?

Yes. Ad copy and landing pages avoid unsupported outcome claims and follow platform healthcare policies and your state's advertising rules. Anything describing results or risks is reviewed with your team before it runs.

How do you track which ads book patients?

Each campaign gets tracked phone numbers and form tracking, and leads flow into one place, so every booked appointment can be traced to the campaign, ad and keyword that produced it.

Do I own the ad accounts?

Yes. Campaigns run in ad accounts owned by your practice, so the history and data stay with you.

What happens to leads after someone clicks an ad?

They are answered in about a minute by text or call, day or night, with the details your team needs to book them. Speed to lead is one of the biggest factors in whether an ad lead becomes a patient.

What do Northview's ad services cost?

A flat monthly management fee, quoted on the intro call. Ad spend is separate and paid directly to the platforms. No long-term contract.
