Which keyword booked the surgery
Cost per lead hides the truth. We connect your ad account to your EMR so you see cost per consult and cost per surgery by procedure, and we bid on what actually produces revenue.
We share deep expertise in marketing and technology but what unites us is a passion to improve the world we all share through innovation.
Don’t just take our words for it, see our work for yourself and how we’ve impacted medical practices and businesses like yours.
We strive to share our value and expertise with others while providing custom services that make your marketing efforts easier.
A rhinoplasty consult and a Botox consult are not the same lead. We build campaigns procedure by procedure, bid on the ones that pay for the month, and track every call and form to the surgery it became.






Cost per lead hides the truth. We connect your ad account to your EMR so you see cost per consult and cost per surgery by procedure, and we bid on what actually produces revenue.
Quality Score decides your price. Most surgeon campaigns land on a generic home page and pay 40% more per click for it. We build one landing page per procedure and the cost drops with it.
Half of ad leads die in voicemail. Our lead management follows every call and form by text and email until it’s a scheduled consult, and reports what happened to each one.
Ads are the fastest lever in a surgical practice. Here is what the program looks like when it’s tied to the consult room.
“I could not have built my own business without DLM. They helped to create my vision and bring it to life.”
A custom website built around the practice’s surgical before-and-after results, paired with video marketing that puts the surgeons on camera and in front of Reno patients researching procedures.
New custom website and procedure content written to rank, so patients in the Raleigh-Cary market find CARE first when they search for the surgeries the practice wants to grow.
Ranked #1 for most target keywords in one of the most competitive metros in the country within four months of launch. The same local playbook runs on every practice we take on.
Separate campaigns for breast, body and face, with keywords, ads and budgets that match each procedure’s margin and demand.
Pages built for the ad, with the gallery, the surgeon and the consult form above the fold, which raises Quality Score and lowers your cost per click.
Every call tied to the keyword that produced it, recorded for coordinator coaching, and scored as consult or not.
Patients research surgery for months. We stay in front of them across Google, YouTube and the Display Network until they book.
Used where they produce consults, with brand guidelines and exclusions so your ads never appear beside the wrong content.
Text and email follow-up on every ad lead until it’s a scheduled consult, with no-show reduction built in.
DLM Insight connects spend, calls, forms and your EMR, so the monthly report shows what each surgery cost to acquire.

Agency comparisons are based on publicly listed services and typical contract terms in the category. We don’t name competitors; ask them yourself.
We read your current account: wasted spend, Quality Scores, landing pages, conversion tracking, and what a procedure-level rebuild would change.
Procedure campaigns, landing pages, call tracking and EMR connection built in the first 30 days, with your approval on every ad before it runs.
Bids, budgets and keywords tuned monthly against cost per consult and cost per surgery, not cost per click.
Enough to own the procedures you want to grow in your market, which varies wildly by city. A rhinoplasty click in Beverly Hills costs several times what it does in Reno. The audit shows what your competitors are spending and recommends a budget per procedure from that.
Search ads produce consults in the first 30 days once tracking and landing pages are in place. Cost per surgery improves over 60 to 90 days as the account learns which keywords convert.
Yes. We audit it first; most accounts need restructuring rather than starting over, and we preserve the history that helps your bids.
Yes, as part of the paid program when it fits. Google captures patients who are actively searching; Meta keeps you in front of the ones who are still deciding.
Yes. Tracking, CRM and reporting are configured so no protected health information reaches ad platforms, and we sign a BAA.
No. We keep clients by producing revenue, which is why our retention is 95%.
In 20 minutes we’ll walk through your account: wasted spend, Quality Scores, landing pages and tracking gaps, and show you what a procedure-level rebuild would change in cost per consult.
