Healthgrades.What AI reads there.

A directory that AI assistants may draw on. What is documented, who it matters for, and how to fix your listing. Cost: Free profile for every NPI-registered provider. Sponsored profiles exist; prices aren't published.

The short answer

Updated

Healthgrades is a US directory of individual healthcare providers, with a free profile for every professional in the national NPI registry. Profiles list insurance, procedures, locations and patient reviews, and Healthgrades says updates sync to its partner sites. We found no official statement that AI assistants use Healthgrades data, but patients compare dentists there, so the details should match your Google profile.

Does AI use it?Only what's documented.

Each row links to the maker's or the platform's own words. Where nothing is published, we say so.

Match these exactly.To your Google profile.

Assistants compare sources. Small differences make them less sure it's the same business.

  • Provider name
  • Practice locations
  • Phone number
  • Insurance accepted
  • Procedures performed

How we handle it.What our team does.

For dental clients, a specialist checks each dentist's Healthgrades profile against the practice's Google profile: locations, phone and insurance. On Growth and Authority, review replies are drafted for staff to approve and never mention a patient's treatment.

Questions people ask.Short answers.

Who can manage a Healthgrades profile?

Only the healthcare professional or an authorised representative. Healthgrades checks a DEA or state licence number before giving access.

Can a practice pay to remove a bad review?

No. Healthgrades says doctors can't pay for good reviews or to remove negative ones.

Does my med spa get a Healthgrades profile?

Profiles are built for individual providers from the NPI registry, so licensed clinicians may have their own. A profile for the business itself isn't described.
