Background and common problems

Reviews shape local decisions, and shortcuts can damage trust and break platform rules. We help you earn genuine reviews, respond carefully, and report policy-violating content through official channels.

Reputation work in healthcare carries two risks: platform policy violations and privacy mistakes. Asking only happy patients for reviews, offering incentives, or replying with details that confirm someone is a patient can all cause harm.

Zincat runs legitimate review request campaigns to every eligible customer, monitors key platforms, drafts thoughtful, privacy-aware replies for your approval, and investigates reviews that may violate Google policy. Where appropriate, we document and report them through Google’s official process and help prepare appeal evidence. There is no guarantee of review removal.

  • Asking only occasionally
  • Unanswered negative reviews
  • Replies that risk disclosing patient information
  • Suspected fake or off-topic reviews

FAQ

Reputation Management questions

Can you remove bad reviews?

We cannot guarantee removal. We can identify reviews that appear to violate Google policy, document them, and report them through official channels.

Can you write reviews for us?

No. Every review must come from a real customer. Fake reviews violate FTC rules and platform policies.

Can we ask only happy patients?

No. Review gating violates Google policy. We help you ask consistently.

How should we reply to a negative review?

Briefly, professionally, without confirming the person is a patient, and with an invitation to contact the office directly.

Can we offer an incentive for reviews?

Incentives for reviews create policy and legal risk, so we do not run incentive campaigns.

Where are Google’s rules?

See Google’s prohibited and restricted content policy and its guide to reporting inappropriate reviews, linked on this page.
