Google Business Profile Management for Dermatology
A practical guide to the categories, services, reviews, website details, and posts that help a dermatology practice's Google Business Profile get found by patients, Google, and AI.
Categories
Choosing the right category tells Google exactly what your dermatology practice does, so add the one that fits best along with the closest matching ones. Google Business Profile lets you set one primary category and up to nine additional categories.
Here's a list of categories commonly used by dermatology businesses. You can also search inside your Google Business Profile for the exact match to your dermatology practice.

Reviews
Encourage patients to mention the specific treatment they received when they leave a review, along with how the experience went. Reviews like this build trust with both Google and AI, and help AI understand what you're genuinely good at.
They can mention:
I had acne treatment done here.
I'm really happy with the allergy patch testing I got, and I'd recommend it.
If these keywords are mentioned, then the reviews become an enquiry tool for you.
Local Website
At a minimum, your local website should cover:
- Your name
- Address
- Phone number
- Working hours
It should also list your dermatology services and categories in full, along with a few of your posts. Wherever you can, go into detail on individual services, for example:
Acne treatment
Under acne treatment, what exactly does it involve?
Allergy patch testing
Under allergy patch testing, what should patients expect?
When all these local details are covered on your website, it becomes far more visible in local search and local SEO results, helping your profile reach more patients who are searching for the treatment you offer.
Posts
It's worth publishing a mix of posts on your Google Business Profile, covering:
Services
Whatever dermatology services you are providing.
FAQs
Common questions patients ask about your treatments.
Informative content
