Toronto & the GTA
There are 1,472 family and walk-in practices listed on Google Maps across the GTA. We opened the 818 websites among them: 190 do not work on a phone, 138 do not load at all. This page is what we found, and what we do about it.
Review counts are not comparable between trades — 97 is the middle for medical practices, which is a very different number from what a dentist or a barber would see. The upper quarter of this field is past 216 reviews and the busiest medical practice we found holds 6,243.
What they are built on
Detected from the 818 family and walk-in practices websites we opened. 58 are on a free or entry-level builder, 1 on software discontinued years ago, and 67 still date themselves 2009 or earlier in the footer.
What actually breaks
Counted separately across all 818 sites in this field, so a site with four faults appears in four rows.
Built for this trade
One page cannot rank for everything a medical practice does. Each service gets its own page, written for the words people actually type — which for this field is rarely the words the trade uses internally.
Reviews, photographs and the details that make someone pick you over the listing above yours. 23% of medical practices with a website still have no mobile version — that alone is an opening.
Forms, booking, click-to-call. 385 sites in this field have no enquiry form at all.
Questions
No. We work with local businesses across the GTA and keep a separate page per trade because what a medical practice needs from a website is genuinely different from what a retailer needs. We surveyed 1,472 family and walk-in practices to write this one.
166 of the 1,472 we checked have none attached to their Google listing, and 138 more link to a site that does not load. Of the 818 working sites, 190 have no mobile version.
The median across the GTA in this field is 97; the upper quarter is past 216 and the busiest single medical practice we found holds 6,243. Those numbers mean nothing outside this trade — a count that is exceptional for a medical practice is unremarkable for a restaurant.
Between $590 and $3,900 for the site depending on size, paid after it is built and you have seen it. Then $129 to $990 a month for hosting, edits, your Google listing and ongoing SEO. Cancel any month.
