Indian patients are increasingly making healthcare decisions based on online research — searching for 'best dermatologist near me', reading doctor reviews on Practo and Google, and choosing clinics based on digital first impressions. Doctors and clinics with strong digital presence attract more patients and build sustainable practices independent of hospital referral networks.
