Healthcare SEO - New York

# Healthcare SEO in New York: Rank in Google and Get Cited by AI

AI names medical practices that Google's first page never shows. Our healthcare SEO New York plan covers both, and our guarantee backs the AI result.

The short answer

## How does healthcare SEO work in New York?

Two separate jobs decide who gets found. We asked AI for the best medical clinic in New York and it named 12 medical practices, yet none appeared on Google's first page for that search. That page held 9 results, and 7 were directories. Ranking and being named need different work, so your practice needs both.

Our own data

## What AI names vs what Google shows.

AI named 12 medical practices in New York. Google's first page for the same search has 9 results: 1 medical practice site, 7 directories and 1 other page. None of the 12 medical practices AI named are among them, and none of the 3 businesses on Google Maps were named by AI.

What AI named

All 12, from ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity

1. NYU Langone Health ChatGPT, Gemini
2. NewYork-Presbyterian ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity
3. Mount Sinai Health System ChatGPT
4. East Side Primary Medical Care: Daniel Klein, MD, FACP ChatGPT
5. MEDRITE Midtown West Urgent Care - Manhattan ChatGPT
6. The Mount Sinai Hospital Gemini
7. Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center Gemini
8. Hospital for Special Surgery Gemini
9. Bethany Medical Clinic Perplexity
10. Century Medical Center Perplexity
11. NY Best Medical Perplexity
12. Manhattan Eye, Ear & Throat Hospital Perplexity

We asked ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity "best medical clinic in New York" and searched Google for the same words. Each Google result was classified as a business site, a directory or ranking, or other. AI names were matched to Google results by business name, website domain or initials, and each match was checked. LLMReach measurement (DataForSEO), 2026-10-26.

What it means

## Three things this tells you.

* ### AI does not copy Google
A strong Google ranking does not carry over to AI answers. Your practice needs its own plan for being cited, built on the sources AI actually reads.
* ### Directories fill Google's first page
Directories take 7 of the 9 spots on Google's first page. Your site competes for the other 2.
* ### AI cites the same few sources
Only 3 of the 14 healthcare marketing agencies AI named came up more than once. AI trusts a narrow set of sources, so earning a place on them matters.
