Best Places to Write an Online Patient Review for Your Plastic Surgeon
70% of patients rely on reviews to help them select a provider (based on Healthgrades data). If you like the plastic surgery results from your plastic surgeon – please write a review for them on more than one website. There is now academic research that proves that prospective patients really want to read patient reviews and see Before & After Photos when deciding which surgeon to choose. Of course, interpersonal skills are also an important criteria.
