Client Background
A rapidly growing chain of diagnostics laboratories approached our marketing agency to modernize their digital infrastructure. They offered blood tests, pathology services, and preventive health packages across multiple locations. However, their outdated website lacked online booking capabilities, mobile responsiveness, and failed to reflect the brand’s clinical accuracy and trustworthiness. They wanted to streamline patient acquisition and enhance brand perception through a complete redesign.
Challenges
The lab chain was facing several issues:
- No online booking system or appointment scheduler
- Low website traffic and high bounce rates
- Difficult navigation and cluttered UI on mobile
- Limited visibility on search engines and poor integration with marketing campaigns
- No structure for tracking leads or inquiries
Objective
Our goal was to design a healthcare-compliant, fast, and engaging website to:
- Facilitate patient self-bookings and online payments
- Promote health packages and drive test-based lead generation
- Establish digital credibility through doctor profiles and accreditations
- Ensure visibility in search results and tie into ongoing marketing campaigns
Strategy Adopted
As a data-driven marketing company, our strategy involved:
- A mobile-first website framework with intuitive navigation
- Booking integration with lab CRM and payment gateway
- Service-wise landing pages optimized for SEO and local searches
- Strong CTAs and chatbot integration for instant query handling
- Health blog for educational content and inbound lead generation
- Structured markup for Google visibility (FAQs, reviews, test info)
Implementation
Over a 6-week development phase, we delivered:
- A secure, fast-loading WordPress-based website
- Dedicated pages for 100+ diagnostic tests with pricing, instructions, and turnaround time
- A “Book a Test” module integrated with the internal appointment system
- WhatsApp chatbot and sticky buttons for easy access to customer service
- Multi-language support for regional accessibility
- Review/testimonial section to boost trust and social proof
Each page was aligned with an active marketing campaign running via email and paid search to maximize visibility and conversions.
Results
The impact was immediate post-launch:
- 85% increase in appointments via online booking forms
- 2.5x rise in organic traffic within 45 days
- 1,200+ health package inquiries through targeted lead generation pages
- 60% drop in bounce rate on mobile
- Improved patient satisfaction due to ease of use and test clarity
Our marketing agency not only delivered a functional platform but helped position the client as a modern, patient-first diagnostics provider.

By combining health-tech integrations with clear information architecture, we enabled the client to serve more patients and build digital trust. Strategic collaboration with a capable marketing company led to both clinical and commercial success through targeted marketing campaigns.
