Below are some of the services you can mention. Select the ones that match what you actually provide.

Reviews
Ask your patients to mention the treatment they received in their review, along with how it went and any relevant details. This turns reviews into a source of trust for Google and AI, and helps AI recognize whether you excel at a particular service.
They can mention:
I had arthroscopic surgery done here.
I'm really happy with the arthroscopy I got, and I'd recommend it.
If these keywords are mentioned, then the reviews become an enquiry tool for you.
Local Website
Your local website should include the following details:
Your name
Address
Phone number
Working hours
Beyond that, it should list all your orthopedics services and categories, along with some of your posts. Where possible, describe your services in detail, for example:
Arthroscopic surgery
Under arthroscopic surgery, what exactly does it involve?
Arthroscopy
Under arthroscopy, 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
You should publish a variety of posts on your Google Business Profile covering:
Services
Whatever orthopedics services you are providing.
FAQs
Common questions patients ask about your treatments.
Informative content

Testimonials
