IVF and fertility clinics · Reputation management
Answer every fertility review without confirming the reviewer was your patient.
Reputation management for an IVF clinic means asking couples for honest reviews in a way that respects their privacy, and replying to each review, kind or angry, without disclosing anything about their treatment. GullySales writes the reply guidelines with your doctors, sets up a private request routine, and passes on the complaints that point to a problem inside the clinic.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What reputation management means
Reputation management is watching what is said about your business across Google, social media and review sites, and responding to it before it changes a buyer's mind. GullySales monitors mentions, drafts responses to negative reviews and flags recurring complaints back to your team.

For IVF and fertility clinics
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Couples hesitate to review fertility care in public”
Many will not put their name next to IVF on Google, however good the care was. Ask privately, accept a no, and never chase a couple who has not replied.
“A failed cycle produces the hardest reviews”
Grief comes out as anger about the bill or the doctor's manner. A defensive reply, read by every couple about to start treatment, does more harm than the review itself.
“A careless reply can breach confidentiality”
Writing 'we are sorry your transfer did not work' confirms in public that the reviewer had IVF. Reply to the concern, never to the treatment.
What we do
What we deliver for IVF and fertility clinics.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Reply guidelines approved by your doctor
Model replies for each kind of review, with a firm rule that no reply mentions a diagnosis, a procedure or an outcome.
Result: Every reply protects the couple as well as the clinic.
A private request routine
A short, optional message after a point the couple is comfortable with, such as the end of a consultation, sent only with their consent.
Result: Reviews come from couples who wanted to give one.
Complaint themes taken back inside
Repeated complaints about waits on scan mornings, billing surprises or rushed counselling grouped and passed to the clinic manager.
Result: Problems get fixed where they start, not only answered online.
Watch kept on Google, Practo and JustDial
New reviews on every platform seen and answered by a named person, with angry ones raised to the clinic head.
Result: No review sits unanswered while couples read it.
False and abusive reviews reported
Reviews that break platform rules flagged with evidence through the proper route, with no promise that any will be removed.
Result: You act on false reviews without making them worse.
How the result is measured
- Average rating
- Response time to reviews
- Negative mentions resolved
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
What to do with each review
Each kind of review an IVF clinic receives needs a different reply, and some need a change inside the clinic.
- Grateful review mentioning a pregnancy
- Thank them warmly without repeating the outcome. Write 'thank you for trusting us' rather than congratulating anyone on a pregnancy in public.
- Angry review after a cycle that failed
- Reply with sympathy and an offer to speak to the doctor directly, saying nothing about treatment. Inside, check whether the couple was offered a review consultation.
- Bill came to more than the estimate
- Apologise for the confusion and offer a call with the billing lead. Inside, compare the estimate format with what was billed and close the gap.
- Long waits on scan or retrieval mornings
- Acknowledge the wait plainly. Inside, look at how appointments are spaced on those mornings and whether couples are told how long to expect.
- Review naming a counsellor or nurse
- Thank or apologise without naming the staff member in the reply. Pass praise on to the person, and handle criticism privately with them.
- Review that looks false or planted
- Report it through the platform with evidence, and reply once, calmly, saying you have no record of the visit and inviting contact. Accuse nobody in public.

Not for
It is not the right fit if.

- 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.
How the reputation management work runs
- 1
Understand current perception
We start by actually searching your business name and reviewing what a stranger would currently see.
- 2
Audit existing mentions
We catalogue reviews, mentions and search results, flagging anything negative or inaccurate.
- 3
Plan responses
A calm, factual response is prepared for anything that needs one, agreed with you before posting.
- 4
Implement monitoring
Ongoing checks are set up so new mentions are caught promptly rather than discovered by accident.
- 5
Measure and report
Sentiment and response times are reported, with your business name searched again to see what has moved.
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.
