From Referral-Dependent to
Fully Booked Online
How AMS rebuilt South Vancouver Physiotherapy Clinic's brand, website, and digital presence — driving 450% organic growth and a fully independent new-patient pipeline.
Great Care. Invisible Online.
South Vancouver Physiotherapy Clinic had built a strong reputation through years of excellent patient care — but their growth had stalled. Like many established clinics, they depended heavily on doctor referrals and word-of-mouth to keep their books full.
The problem? That pipeline wasn't predictable. When referral relationships changed or patients moved, bookings dipped with no reliable way to replace them. Meanwhile, their website was outdated, slow, and failing to rank for even the most basic local searches — leaving potential patients to book with a competitor they found first on Google.
SVPC needed more than a refresh. They needed a complete digital rebuild — a brand, a website, and a marketing engine that could fill the schedule on its own terms.

A Full Digital Rebuild — Ground Up
Rebrand: A Brand That Earns Trust Before the First Appointment
We started with a full brand audit and discovered SVPC's visual identity didn't match the quality of care they delivered. The rebrand gave the clinic a polished, approachable identity — new logo, colour palette, typography, and messaging framework — designed to resonate with South Vancouver's diverse patient base and build immediate confidence online. Every patient touchpoint was updated to reflect the new look and voice.
Web Design: A Site That Works as Hard as the Clinic Does
The new website was built from the ground up with one priority: turning visitors into booked patients. We designed a fast, mobile-first site with clear service pages for physiotherapy, massage therapy, ICBC, and WorkSafeBC — each structured to answer the exact questions patients search before booking. Prominent calls-to-action, online booking integration, and trust signals (reviews, credentials, team bios) were woven throughout to reduce friction and drive conversions at every stage.
SEO: Owning South Vancouver's Physiotherapy Search Results
We executed a comprehensive local SEO strategy targeting the specific terms patients in South Vancouver use to find care. This included technical SEO fixes (site speed, schema markup, crawlability), a fully optimized Google Business Profile, neighbourhood-specific landing pages, and a content strategy targeting injury-specific and condition-related searches. The result: SVPC climbed from relative obscurity to prominent placement across the searches that matter most — including map pack results for Vancouver physiotherapy.
PPC: Smarter Campaigns That Stop Burning Budget
We restructured SVPC's Google Ads account from the ground up — tightening keyword targeting to focus on high-intent queries ("ICBC physio Vancouver," "sports rehab South Vancouver"), eliminating wasted spend on irrelevant clicks, and building dedicated landing pages for each campaign. Ongoing optimisation of bid strategy, ad copy, and audience segments steadily reduced cost per conversion while increasing booking volume — giving the clinic a reliable, scalable paid channel to complement organic growth.
Numbers That Speak for Themselves
Organic Traffic Growth
A massive increase in patients finding SVPC through Google search — driven by local SEO, technical improvements, and strategic content.
Local Map Pack Improvement
SVPC secured prominent map pack placement for Vancouver physiotherapy searches — putting the clinic front and centre at the moment patients decide to book.
Lower PPC Cost Per Conversion
Smarter campaign structure, tighter keyword targeting, and optimized landing pages cut cost per patient acquisition nearly in half.
