For decades, one challenge has consistently been at the top of chiropractors' minds:

How do I get more new patients?

Today, the answer increasingly starts with what happens when someone searches for a chiropractor online.

In this episode, Dr. Noel Lloyd interviews Corey Hiben, founder of ChiroX, about how chiropractic practices can use SEO, Google Ads, Google Business Profiles, better websites, and data-driven marketing to create a more predictable new patient pipeline.

Corey shares his journey from occupational therapy into digital marketing and explains why he ultimately chose to specialize specifically in helping chiropractors grow.

SEO vs Google Ads:

Corey explains a simple way to think about the difference:

Google Ads can help create opportunities in the shorter term, while SEO is a longer-term investment in the visibility of your practice.

For growing practices, the strongest strategy may ultimately involve both — paid visibility today while building organic visibility for the future.

Your Website Isn't About You

One of the biggest mistakes Corey sees is chiropractic websites filled with information about the doctor but lacking a clear path for someone who simply wants help.

Prospective patients primarily want to know:

Can you help me?
Can I trust you?
How do I schedule?

Making those answers obvious can dramatically improve the effectiveness of your online presence.

Track the Number that Matters

Marketing shouldn't be a mystery.

Corey recommends looking closely at how much you're investing and how many actual new patients are being generated from that investment.

Cost per lead and other metrics matter, but ultimately the practice owner needs to understand whether marketing is producing real patients and real growth.
