Proof
What does one of our consultant websites look like?
Open the live site → Why do consultants need their own website?
Because patients search your name after a referral or recommendation, and for most private consultants what they find is a thin hospital directory listing or a dated profile page — not a site that reflects the standard of care you provide. That gap can cost you self-pay and insured enquiries.
What does a consultant or surgeon website need?
One-consultant continuity story
For solo consultants, we make the 'the consultant you meet is the surgeon who operates' continuity explicit — a genuine differentiator over hospital group sites.
Treatment + location pages
A scalable pattern of specialism pages and location pages that capture 'specialism in town' search without thin, duplicated content.
Insurer recognition trust block
Clear display of Bupa, AXA and other insurer recognition, fee-assured status, and self-pay options so patients know immediately they can proceed.
Credentials & GMC trust
GMC number, fellowships, hospital affiliations and professional memberships structured for both patients and AI engines to verify.
Review integration
Top Doctors, Doctify and Google review integration that surfaces real, attributable patient feedback (with consent).
AEO for specialist queries
Entity and schema structure that helps AI assistants identify you accurately when patients ask about specialists in your field and area.
Scope & decisions
How do we plan a consultant website?
Around the patient’s next decision: understanding your expertise, where you practise and how to arrange an appointment. Your practice stays responsible for reviewing clinical claims and approving patient-facing information.
Credentials and locations
Provide the clinician’s approved biography, professional registration details, qualifications and current practice locations. Make insured and self-pay enquiry routes clear and verify every booking destination.
Treatment information
Explain which conditions you assess, available treatment options, the consultation process and relevant limitations. Name the clinical reviewer and review date where appropriate. Avoid unsupported superiority or outcome claims.
Enquiry and booking
Link to your approved booking system or secretary. Keep a general enquiry form limited to contact and scheduling information; agree a suitable secure system separately if clinical information must be collected.
Launch and ongoing accuracy
Review the mobile patient journey, keyboard access and contact delivery. Preserve useful existing URLs, agree who updates hospital details and fees, and measure completed booking or enquiry actions where the systems support it.
How do your options compare?
Most private consultants and surgeons can choose between a DIY builder, a freelancer or a specialist agency; the right route depends on how much of your work arrives through the website. Market ranges below come from our private practice website cost guide.
| Route | Typical cost | What you get | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Do it yourself | £0 build cost plus your time; domain and hosting from about £200 a year | A template site you write, check and maintain yourself | Newly independent practitioners testing demand |
| Freelancer | Varies — we haven't published a range; usually a simple brochure build | A site built to your brief; healthcare trust signals, compliance and local search depend on the individual | Simple brochure sites where you'll own the copy and compliance |
| In-house hire | Staff salary and time — we haven't published a range | Someone on your team who updates the site alongside other duties | Larger groups that already employ marketing staff |
| Typical agency | About £2,000–£5,000+ one-off for a bespoke professional build | Design, build and launch; healthcare experience varies, so ask for examples | Practices where booked appointments pay for the site |
| Elite Digital | Essential from £1,995; Practice from £2,950; Clinic / Authority from £4,500 | Credentials and trust signals, local SEO foundations and schema, with treatment and location pages from Practice; you approve clinical content | Consultants and surgeons who want a site they own, built around referrals and insured or self-pay enquiries |
Ranges are guides, not quotes. Booking software and payment processing are usually separate running costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a private consultant website cost in the UK?
Professional private healthcare websites typically range from around £2,000 to £5,000 depending on size and functionality. Our healthcare builds start at £1,995. Very cheap template sites usually underperform on trust, search and compliance.
Do private consultants and surgeons need a website?
Usually, yes. After a referral or recommendation, patients search your name before booking. Without your own site, they judge you on a directory listing you don't control.
Can you integrate online booking?
Yes — we integrate with practice management and booking systems so patients can request or book consultations directly, with enquiries routed to your secretary or PA.
Will my site appear in Google AI Overviews and ChatGPT?
We structure your site — entities, schema, question-led content — so AI engines can understand and cite it. No agency can guarantee a specific engine's output, and we are honest about that.
Do I own the website?
Yes — full ownership, no lock-in. You own the domain, the site, and the content.
Is the website GDPR and compliance-aware?
Yes. We build to UK GDPR and accessibility standards and keep marketing claims ASA/CAP-aware. Clinical claims about treatments remain yours as the clinician.
