  • Ep. 173: The Real Cost of Patient Acquisition for Urgent Cares (And How to Get Patients for Under $20)

    📗 Check out our DIY Resource Toolkit: https://offer.patientcaremarketingpros.com/diy-toolkit


    Nick and Michael kick off this episode of Walk-Ins Welcome with a bold claim: you've been lied to about your patient acquisition costs. They break down the real numbers they're seeing across urgent care clinics nationwide (spoiler: it's under $20), and unpack the three biggest culprits behind inflated costs—PMAX campaigns, vanity metrics, and targeting too wide of a radius. From Google Ads pitfalls to the difference between conversions and actual acquisitions, they cover the data, the strategy, and why many clinics are unknowingly feeding Google bad information. Plus, hear why brand recognition matters less than proximity, and how fast food chains like Chick-fil-A and McDonald's offer surprisingly useful comparisons for urgent care success.

    Geoffrey studied human biology as a premedical student from the University of Southern California. He was on the path for medical school before noticing the monotonous challenges that healthcare providers face daily, which inspired him to start Fluency. He aims to relieve workflow burdens at every step of the patient care journey, from automating intake to post-visit clinical notes.

    At Fluency, Geoffrey is determined to bring the capabilities of AI to every urgent care, allowing clinics to see more patients.
