Website Design for General Practitioners – Requirements
A well designed general practitioner website is an asset to your practice – a source of new patients and a time saver for your doctors and admin staff.
At a minimum a general practice website design should incorporate:
- A well presented, modern and appealing design that loads quickly and is easy to navigate
- Information about the available doctors
- Clearly presented contact details, including practice location and how to book an appointment
More detailed websites can incorporate patient information about procedures and common medical conditions, informational videos, and features such as a blog or online booking functionality.
Case Study:
The Grange Family Medical Centre Website Design
This website for a Port Macquarie General Practice was created on the WordPress framework. Contact information is displayed prominently in the website’s header and footer throughout the site.
The home page was designed to be attractive, friendly & easy to navigate. The home page design also features an introductory video about the practice.
The site features appointment booking functionality powered by Health Engine. Enabling patients to book online boosts booking rates and saves valuable staff time.
Website content is accreditation ready. The site runs a blog where the practice is able to publish news and updates for patients.
