Websites for doctors and health professionals
In a world where patients increasingly turn to the web for medical information, having a strong online presence is essential. We design professional websites optimised for search engines to help your practice reach the right audience. Just as you wouldn’t refer your patients to Dr Google, having professionals who understand the healthcare sector manage your website design and digital presence makes good sense for you and your business.
We design, host and maintain bespoke websites and tailored digital solutions for doctors, medical practices, health researchers and allied health professionals of all specialties including psychiatrists, surgeons, GPs, paediatricians, obstetricians and gynaecologists, dermatologists, psychologists, dentists, physiotherapists, and more.
In addition, we provide SEO and content creation services that deliver evidence-based and medically accurate information showcasing your expertise and educating your patients, increasing your reach and patient intakes while also freeing up valuable time to focus on your patients, enjoy downtime with your family, and even catch a few more precious winks of sleep!
In the fast-paced world of healthcare, every minute counts. We know from personal experience that medical professionals are tirelessly committed to patient care, leaving little time to delve into the intricacies of website development, online advertising, and search engine rankings. That’s where we come in.
There are not too many digital agencies where you will have your web development and search engine optimisation services delivered and quality assured by professionals with medical and public health qualifications. But that’s our specialty!
With Vida Web Design, you can rest assured knowing that your website will be built in-house by our family-run digital agency based in Brisbane, with the same level of care and attention to detail that you show each of your patients.
Dr Monty Burrows is a registered and practising medical doctor with a passion for the digital space. He personally understands the all-consuming nature of a career in healthcare and medicine. Over the years he has witnessed many colleagues venturing into private practice or academic careers with little time for the practicalities that come with establishing and managing a clinical practice, including online advertising. That’s why he now has a passion for ensuring his colleagues are taken care of with high-quality, professional, medically-accurate and compliant websites that target the types of patients looking for your specialised services – and are also easy on the eye.

With the currently overburdened health system and a sector that has traditionally relied upon referral networks, you may think that online advertising for your practice is unnecessary.
However, the truth is that these days, an online presence is crucial for all types of businesses. Here is why you should consider a website for your healthcare or medical practice:
In an era where online research is prevalent, potential patients will likely search for you online before booking, and to find out useful information about accessing your services. A well-developed website showcases your qualifications and expertise, and help a potential client feel comfortable and prepared booking in for an appointment.
A professional website can establish trust and credibility for you and your practice and provide informed and accurate health and medical information, demonstrating a commitment to patient education and engagement.
Referral networks are an integral part of your practice. However, a well-designed, tailored and SEO-optimised website can work for you 24/7 (because we know that you’re already working 24/7!) and give you wider geographical reach of patients and other doctors, specialists and referring practitioners – who may be looking for the medical specialties and treatment options that you offer.
This can be particularly important for new practices who are building up their clientele, but it is still important for established practitioners and can bolster your networking efforts while you are busy treating patients.
Importantly, a health or medical service website can act as a useful and efficient tool for automating aspects of your practice. It can integrate functionality such as online booking systems, as well as useful resources and information on FAQs that can greatly reduce the workload of you, your practice management and administrative staff. A well-designed website can incorporate information and referral forms available for referring colleagues to streamline the process for both parties.
