SEO & AEO for Fertility Clinics

By Nathan Woo

Get found by patients searching for IVF, egg freezing, fertility treatment, and reproductive medicine.

Fertility patients face emotional and financial stakes that make their research thorough and careful – nearly 60% of US adults search for health information online.[1] They compare success rates, investigate treatment options, and look for providers they can trust. Your online presence directly influences whether they choose your clinic.

Fertility treatment represents one of the most emotionally charged patient journeys in healthcare. Patients face significant financial investments – IVF cycles typically cost $15,000-30,000+[2] – and profound emotional stakes. Each treatment cycle carries hope and anxiety, and patients want to choose the clinic that gives them the best chance of success.

This combination of emotional vulnerability and high financial stakes drives intensive research behavior. Research shows negative reviews significantly decrease physician selection intention.[3] Patients compare success rates on CDC and SART databases, investigate physician credentials, read patient testimonials, and often consult multiple clinics before deciding. Your digital presence must excel at both clinical credibility and emotional connection.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions fertility practices ask about SEO and AEO.

Most begin with treatment research ("what is IVF," "egg freezing process") before progressing to provider search ("fertility clinic near me," "best IVF doctor [city]"). Referrals from OB/GYNs remain important, but patients increasingly research referred clinics online. Success rate comparisons (CDC/SART data) heavily influence final decisions.

Key takeaways

  • Success rates are scrutinized – present them clearly and in context
  • Emotional sensitivity is as important as clinical expertise
  • High financial stakes drive intensive research behavior
  • Large networks dominate budget competition – differentiate on value
