Asked of an assistant

who is the best audiologist near me

Names two or three practices. There is no second page.

  • Corroborates
  • Conflicts
  • Missing

Presenting complaint

A patient asks an assistant who the best audiologist near them is. It names three practices. There is no second page to be on, and nobody at the practice knows whether they were one of the three.

Finding

The shortlist has three slots and no scroll

Classic search fails gently: on page two, some traffic still arrives. An assistant either names you or the conversation ends without you, and the patient never knows a list existed. The work is binary, and it has to be measured that way.

Mechanism

What assistants actually lean on

  • Entity consistency — the practice, its locations and each provider resolving to one unambiguous thing across every source
  • Corroboration from places that are not you: professional associations, licensing bodies, directories, local press
  • Statements of fact that can be lifted whole, without hedging or marketing language wrapped around them
  • Pages that answer the question as asked rather than targeting the keyword the question contains
  • Reviews, which assistants read and summarise more directly than search results ever did
Measurement

Tracking it properly

A fixed set of the questions patients actually ask, in real sentences, run on a schedule against the major assistants. The monthly read is simple: which assistants named you, which named a chain or a directory, and what changed.

Questions

Questions about this piece

Is this just SEO with a new name?

Substantially yes, and anyone telling you it is an entirely new discipline is selling a second retainer. The genuinely different parts are that measurement is binary, that corroboration matters more than links, and that hedged marketing prose is actively penalised because it cannot be quoted.

Can you guarantee we get named?

No. Assistant behaviour changes without notice and no one controls it. What is controllable is being the most consistently described, best corroborated practice in the catchment, which is what determines the odds.

How many prompts do you track?

Twenty on a single-practice engagement, fifty across catchments for multi-location. Fixed sets, so the month-over-month comparison means something.

Can we pay to be named in ChatGPT's answers?

No. OpenAI keeps ads out of the answer: they sit under it, labelled, and do not change what it says. We run ChatGPT ads alongside this work for the space under the answer, but being named in the answer is earned the way this page describes.

This one rarely works alone.

The audit decides which pieces you actually need and in what order. You keep it whether or not you continue.
