How it works

Booked, Tracked, Informed: the first steps in St. Louis

Every step is measured, so we can show where St. Louis patients are found, lost or booked. These are the steps we would put first.

  • Booked

    The evaluation is on the calendar with confirmation, intake forms and reminders to reduce no-shows.

  • Tracked

    Calls, forms and bookings are tied to their source, so you know whether search, ads or referrals filled the schedule.

  • Informed

    A fast website that explains direct access, insurance and what the first visit involves, using plain language.

The whole method is on the physical therapy marketing page.

Where patients leak

Where physical therapy practices in St. Louis lose new patients

  • Referral relationships need upkeep

    Physicians and surgeons send patients to clinics they know and trust. Without regular outreach and a clean referral process, those relationships fade.

  • Cancellations and gaps

    Open evaluation slots and late cancellations leave empty hours. Reminders, waitlists and fast replies to new inquiries help fill them.
