Absolutely – today, reviews are probably one of the most important things you can be doing in your Internet marketing. People are relying on word-of-mouth so much more than traditional advertising, so this is a great way to stay in front of those potential patients. Thanks for stopping by and commenting!

Thanks for the tips! I have noticed more review sites popping up in the search engine results pages, like Yelp.com and CitySearch.com, so I agree it’s important to cultivate those good reviews for your business.

Not only was Jeff a brilliant scientist and inventor, he was a truly wonderful person. He often spoke of his wife and children and was proud to teach them Spanish through an immersion program – in Mexico, I think.He always smiled and loved to be with his friends. It is amazing to me that a guy who just happened to meet us because he was in the booth next to ours later invited us to his house when we were in Boston for a subsequent ASCRS Meeting. Everyone who knew him will miss him.

Jonathan,I can tell you from our own organization’s experience that your advice is well founded.Although the demand for Lasik will wax and wane with consumer confidence and economic concerns, the desire is constant. That means that when demand dips, people are still interested.Our nonprofit patient advocacy has a very popular website with an active bulletin board and thousands (literally) of pages of information. We try to keep objective about vision correction surgery. We just provide the facts and let people come to their own conclusions.What we have found in the last 10 years is that when consumer confidence wanes and volume goes down, the demand for information skyrockets. I attribute this to the consistent desire for Lasik, even if the decision will be delayed. When you want something but are not yet able/willing to purchase it, you research. A major research source is the Internet.In the six months ending April 30, 2008, the http://www.USAEyes.org website experienced an increase of unique visitors of 38.4% and an increase of page views of 73.5% with an increase of the amount of time on our website of 28.1% when compared to the previous year. More people are visiting our website, reading more pages, and spending more time than the previous year before the recent economic downturn.During the week of recent government hearings on the quality of life after Lasik, our website experienced a 36% increase in visitors (year to date) and requests for surgeon referral information doubled. It appears obvious that patients are getting ready for more economic stability by researching Lasik and potential doctors on the Internet.Glenn HageleExecutive DirectorCouncil for Refractive Surgery Quality AssuranceUSAEyes
