Hospitals · Social media
Use social media to build trust in doctors, not to chase admissions directly.
Social media management for a hospital means posting doctor introductions, health awareness tips and behind-the-scenes content that builds trust before an admission is ever needed. GullySales runs this calendar around the hospital's priority departments and seasonal health topics.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.
What social media means
Social media is the ongoing posting your business does on platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn to stay visible to customers and prospects between purchases. GullySales plans a posting calendar, writes captions and designs the images so the page looks active and answers what a visitor would ask.
Last updated 5 Oct 2026. Rules for this trade differ by state and professional body, and they change. We describe restrictions in general terms, so check the current position with your own council or adviser before you publish anything.
For hospitals
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Doctor introduction posts outperform announcement posts”
A short video of a surgeon explaining a common condition is watched and shared far more than a facilities post.
“Seasonal health topics match what people already search”
Posts on dengue precautions before monsoon reach people already worried about the topic that week.
“Comments need a fast, careful reply”
A health question left unanswered in the comments reads as neglect, so replies need to be quick and medically careful.
What we do
What we deliver for hospitals.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A doctor introduction video series
Short videos of a surgeon or specialist explaining a common condition, built as an ongoing content series.
Result: Trust builds with doctors before anyone needs to be admitted.
A seasonal health topic calendar
A posting plan tied to seasonal worries, such as dengue precautions before monsoon, matched to what people are already searching.
Result: Posts reach people already thinking about that exact topic.
A comment reply routine
A fast, medically careful reply routine for health questions left in the comments, since an unanswered question reads as neglect.
Result: A visible question gets a careful answer instead of silence.
Platform priority for doctor content
A decision to focus doctor content on Instagram and YouTube, alongside the Google Business Profile most enquiries already use.
Result: Effort goes to where the audience for doctor content actually is.
How the result is measured
- Posts published
- Engagement rate
- Enquiries from social profiles
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Platform for this buyer
Where families look for a hospital, and what to post for each.
- Instagram and Facebook doctor introductions
- A short video with name, speciality, the conditions seen in general terms and how to book through the helpdesk. Advertising rules for doctors differ by state and body, so check with your own council first.
- YouTube health education by department
- Explain what to expect on the day of a scan, how to prepare for a procedure or what to bring for an admission. Keep it informational, not promotional.
- WhatsApp Business for camps and OPD days
- Send health camp dates and new OPD days to people who opted in. Replies should go to the appointment desk, not to a doctor's personal phone.
- Google Business Profile posts by department
- Post camp dates, new clinic days and the emergency number exactly as it appears on the listing. Update the post when a department's timings change.
- LinkedIn for corporate HR heads
- Describe the health check packages you offer to employers and the doctors who run the programme. Keep to services and facilities, never outcomes.
- What not to post
- No patient photographs, identifiable case stories, surgery images, before and after pictures or outcome claims. Rules for hospitals change, so check them with your own council and legal adviser.
Who it is for
This is written for these hospitals.
- Multi-speciality hospitals
- Single-speciality hospitals, maternity, orthopaedic or eye
- Nursing homes
- Day-care surgery centres
- Corporate hospital chains with several branches
- Diagnostic-centre-led hospitals
- Hospitals attached to medical colleges
- Government-empanelled private hospitals
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
- You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
- You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.
How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
First
Your brief
You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.
After the brief
A conversation and a written scope
We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.
Before work starts
Baseline recorded
Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.
After the baseline
The first fix goes live
The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is reply time, a follow-up sequence, the page buyers land on or the handover between marketing and sales.
As agreed
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.
At renewal
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

Proof
What happened when owners fixed this.
Real clients, the work we did, and the result as it was recorded. Where no number was recorded, none is claimed.

Nanda Arthritis and Rheumatology Center

- What we did
- A website for patients
- Search work
- Google Business and reviews
- Lead capture and advertising
- Result
- No numbers were recorded for this engagement. The work is described in full in the case study.

Why us
Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.
Marketing and sales, as one job
Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.
The person on the first call does the work
No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.
A baseline before anything starts
Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.
The fee in writing, split three ways
Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.
No guarantees we cannot keep
The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
One office, and we say so
Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.
