Reputation--both within your community and on the internet--are still important factors in keeping and growing your business. realdrseattle® provides reasons behind the importance of maintaining online reputation in cosmetic surgery marketing.First off, what is online reputation? Usually, a cosmetic surgeon’s online reputation has to do with online reviews. There are various platforms where patients can leave reviews including Google, Yelp, Healthgrades, and RealSelf.
