Huron Gastro Harnesses the Power of rater8
Prior to joining forces with rater8, Huron Gastro faced a common issue: an online reputation that skewed negatively due to Google reviews from a few unhappy patients. While Huron Gastro's providers offered exceptional care, the group realized they needed to more effectively showcase their high level of patient satisfaction to the wider online community.
The impact of adopting rater8 has been remarkable for Huron Gastro. In just one year, they cultivated over 4,000 new reviews, boosting their respectable 4.03 overall star rating to a stellar 4.94 and highlighting their positive patient perception.
