Download Your Free Website Checklist
A website that looks professional and a website that works are not the same thing. Our Website Checklists give you practical tips for what to look for through the eyes of the patient, donor, or community member you're trying to reach.
Is your health practice's website working?
A 10-point self-assessment for health and wellness practices that ready to see what patients see.
Before a patient calls your clinic, they've already decided whether to trust you. That decision happens on your website, in the first few seconds, before anyone on your team has said a word.
This checklist helps you see your practice the way a first-time patient does. Ten honest questions that most health practices have never stopped to answer.
What you'll know after working through it:
What your homepage is actually communicating before anyone reads a single word
Whether your booking or contact information is as easy to find as you think it is
Which trust signals are missing, and how that affects whether patients call
Whether a new patient landing on your site at 11pm would feel like they'd found the right place, or keep searching

These are the questions I ask before every brand project
I've spent a decade designing for health and wellness organizations — including years doing patient education design for hospital systems, where the work was about helping patients understand complex health information at some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives.
What I learned from that work: most health practices and nonprofits are so focused on the quality of what they do that they rarely stop to see themselves the way the people they serve actually do. The website that made complete sense to the team who built it is often confusing — or invisible — to the person who needs it most.
UX research on healthcare websites consistently shows that patients make trust decisions before reading a single sentence. Not based on your credentials or your outcomes — based on whether the page they landed on feels like it was built for them.
These checklists are the questions I bring to every brand and web evaluation. I'm sharing them because knowing where the gaps are is the first step to closing them.
