Nepal
Healthcare marketing in Nepal has to earn trust before it earns a click. Overstated claims cost patients and credibility. We build for accuracy first.
Healthcare marketing carries a different responsibility than most other categories, patients are making decisions about their own or a family member's health, often while anxious, and exaggerated claims or vague promises actively erode trust once discovered. Arcetis builds hospital and clinic marketing around accurate doctor profiles, specialty-specific search campaigns, and a Google Business Profile and review system patients can actually verify, never around promised outcomes.
A patient searching for a cardiologist in Kathmandu or a maternity hospital in Pokhara is usually not casually browsing, they are making a decision under real stress, for themselves or someone they care about. Marketing that treats this like selling a product, with vague promises or inflated claims, does not just underperform, it damages trust the moment a patient notices the gap between the marketing and the actual experience. That difference shapes almost everything about how we approach healthcare marketing in Nepal.
What works instead is specificity and verifiability: which doctors are actually on staff, what their qualifications are, what conditions a department specializes in, and how to actually book an appointment, not generic "best healthcare in Nepal" messaging that could apply to any hospital. We never write marketing that promises a cure, a result, or an outcome, both because it is dishonest and because it is the fastest way to lose a patient's trust permanently.
"Hospital in Kathmandu" is too broad to convert well, the patient searching that way could need anything from a routine checkup to an emergency. We build Google Ads campaigns around specific, high-intent searches: a department, a condition, a procedure, paired with landing pages that answer the actual question, such as which doctors treat this, what the process looks like, and how to book, instead of routing everyone to the same generic homepage.
As a verified Google Partner managing $200,000+ in Google ad spend across clients, we also handle the compliance side carefully. Google has specific, strict policies around healthcare advertising, and campaigns that ignore them get disapproved or suspended, which is a common problem we see when hospitals try to run this in-house without a specialist.
Patients in Nepal increasingly check a doctor's individual profile, qualifications, years of practice, specialty, sometimes a photo, before booking, not just the hospital's general reputation. We build individual doctor and department pages that give this information clearly, because a hospital site that only talks about itself in general terms loses patients to a competitor whose site actually answers "is this the right doctor for my situation."
Review management matters here more than almost any other category, because a hospital's Google reviews are read by people making a health decision, not a casual purchase. We set up a system for requesting feedback appropriately and responding to concerns professionally and promptly, with attention to patient privacy in how any response is worded.
No, and we would not write it that way even if asked. Promising cures or guaranteed outcomes is both dishonest and a fast way to lose patient trust. We focus marketing on accurate information, doctors, specialties, and process, rather than outcome claims.
Yes, Google Ads has specific policies around healthcare and medical advertising globally, and campaigns that do not follow them risk disapproval or account suspension. As a verified Google Partner, we build campaigns that work within those policies from the start.
Patients increasingly research the specific doctor, not just the hospital, before booking, checking qualifications, specialty, and experience. A hospital site without clear doctor-level information loses patients to a competitor whose site answers that question directly.
We set up a structured, appropriate way to request feedback from patients and respond to concerns professionally and promptly, since hospital reviews are read by people making real health decisions and carry more weight than reviews in most other categories.
