Search engine and AI marketing for optometrists

What a claimed profile changes

• You are listed first. Claimed and completed profiles lead every page they appear on: the optometrists page for your city, the state page, and the condition and procedure pages your specialty handles. Unclaimed profiles follow.
• AI assistants get a source you control. ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude read Guide.md pages when someone asks for a optometrist near them. A claimed profile carries your phone, your address, your hours, what you treat, in structured data they read directly.
• The registry never overwrites you again. An unclaimed profile mirrors the federal NPPES record, errors included. Once claimed, what you write stays; registry changes wait for your say.
• Your home stays private. If the registry lists a home address or a personal number, one choice hides the street and phone everywhere; the city and state stay.

Questions optometrists ask

Is Guide.md free for optometrists?

Yes. Claiming and correcting a profile is free and stays free: one email from your practice, hospital or institutional address, no identity document, no card. Paid plans add media, FAQs and writing tools; nothing you need to be listed correctly is behind them.

How many optometrists are on Guide.md?

65,158 optometrists are listed from the NPI registry. Claimed profiles are listed first on every page they appear on.

Where would my profile appear?

On your own profile page, on the optometrist page for your city and state, and on the condition and procedure pages your specialty handles. AI assistants read these pages directly; a claimed profile gives them a source you control.

What if the registry has my home address or a personal number?

Claim the profile and choose "This is my home: hide it"; the street and phone come off everywhere and the city and state stay. Or use the "Hide it" link under the contact details on the profile without claiming.
