Notes from our visit to 856 Sheppard Ave W, North York · July 2026
SCROLL TO EXPLORE
Before We Get Into It

Thanks for having us in.

It was great meeting Mary and seeing 856 Sheppard Avenue West during such an exciting stretch, a grand opening, five dentists on staff, and a genuinely wide range of care under one roof. Everything on the next few pages comes out of that visit and the research we did afterward, not a generic template.

Geovise

A marketing agency, built on AI most agencies aren't using yet.

We're a marketing agency first. The work is the same work any good agency does, getting you found, getting you leads, turning interest into booked customers. The difference is we build and run real AI underneath all of it, which is what lets us do work that normally costs three or four times as much, for a lot less, without cutting corners. Think close to what you'd get from a full-time hire dedicated to this, at a fraction of a single salary.

Everything from here is built from that visit plus our own research, your website, your reviews, your public footprint, not yet a full sit-down on your specific goals. Think of it as a preview of how we think, not the ceiling of what we can do. Meta and Google ad management, lead capture systems, custom dashboards, and bespoke internal software are all things we build regularly, we just don't like guessing at solutions to problems we haven't actually heard from you.

About United Dental

A strong opening lineup, right out of the gate.

United Dental opened its doors at 856 Sheppard Avenue West with five dentists covering general, pediatric, cosmetic, implant, and oral surgery care, walk-ins accepted, open seven days a week including Saturdays, and CDCP certified from day one. That's an unusually complete team for a brand new clinic to start with.

You're just getting started, and that's exactly the moment where every early patient's experience shapes what North York thinks of United Dental for years. Everything on the next few pages is about making sure that first impression, online and in person, matches the team you've actually built.

Illustrative example of how an AI answer gets built, not an actual search result.
01 — What We Noticed

AI doesn't know United Dental exists yet.

When someone searches for a walk-in dentist in North York, the answer an AI builds comes from a track record, reviews, detailed pages, all things a brand new clinic hasn't had time to build yet.

Right now that answer defaults to established practices nearby. That's expected for a clinic this young, not a strike against you, but it also means the next few months matter more than they ever will again for shaping how AI describes United Dental.

02 — What We Noticed

The website is live, but it's not quite finished doing its job.

A good number of the photos across the site, the doctor headshots, the before-and-afters, the service icons, aren't loading. And the Reviews section on your own homepage is there, titled and ready, but currently empty, which reads as a gap even though it's really just a timing issue for a brand new clinic.

Neither is a big fix, but until they're addressed, they're the first thing a new patient sees when they click through.

03 — What We Noticed

The grand opening leads matter more than any leads will again.

A free first visit consultation and a grand opening promotion are exactly the right way to bring in that first wave of patients, but it also means a burst of inquiries hitting a brand new front desk all at once, walk-ins, calls, WhatsApp messages, website forms.

Losing track of even a few of those early leads costs more right now than it ever will once the practice has an established base to fall back on.

These are our best guesses from the outside looking in. You'll tell us how close we got.

What We Found

Two questions, two very different answers.

We didn't want to just tell you this, so we checked. We asked AI tools like ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews who to book with, the same way a customer would.

Wide open, exactly as expected for a new clinic

Neither search surfaces United Dental yet, and that's the normal starting point for any brand new practice. The upside is that every other clinic on this list had to build their AI visibility from the same zero you're starting from. The five dentists and the walk-in model are a strong story, it just needs to get written down somewhere AI can read it.

There's a compounding upside here too. A lead who found you through an AI answer instead of a map pin has usually already asked the follow-up questions, insurance, pricing, whether you actually treat their specific issue, before they ever pick up the phone. Those leads convert at a higher rate and cost your front desk a lot less time chasing people who were never going to book anyway.

Four ways we help you grow.

🔎

GEO

Making your business the answer when someone asks AI who to book with, and the specific details that turn that answer into a warmer lead.

🧲

Lead Capture & Generation

Forms, funnels, and follow-up that turn interest, whether it comes from GEO, ads, or referrals, into leads actually sitting in your pipeline.

🛠️

AI Tools

Custom, branded tools your team actually uses. Built around your workflow, usually live within a week.

🤖

AI Agents

Autonomous help that runs your most repetitive work around the clock. No one has to trigger it.

Next Steps

Here's what it'd actually look like.

Nothing formal, no long onboarding, and no dumping everything on you at once. Just three easy steps, starting with whatever matters most first.

01 —

Discovery meeting

We grab 20-30 minutes, get to know your business, and show you exactly what we'd build, before you spend a dollar.

02 —

Designed, built, and set up on your systems. Most tools are live within a week.

03 —

We run it

Monthly updates, plain-language reporting, and a direct line to us. No black box, ever.

For United Dental

Two AI employees for your front desk.

☎️

After-hours booking

Answers calls, texts, and WhatsApp messages any time the front desk can't, evenings, Sundays, the moments a brand new team is still figuring out coverage for, and books walk-ins and appointments straight into the schedule.

🔁

New patient follow-up

Keeps every grand opening inquiry moving, texting people back who called, walked in, or messaged and didn't book yet, so the promotion actually converts into patients instead of missed callbacks.

Our Recommendations · For United Dental

Tools you'd actually use.

💬

Website assistant

Trained on your actual five-dentist team and full service range, so a new patient gets a real answer any time of day, not just when someone's free to pick up.

Automatic review requests

Sends a quick review link to your very first patients right after a good visit, the moment they're most likely to say yes. Filling that empty Reviews section matters more now than it ever will again.

📄

A website that's actually finished

AI-written content and a real content refresh to replace the broken images and empty sections, so the site matches the strength of the team you've actually put together.

One Honest Note

You know your business best.

Everything in this deck is our outside read, built from your website, your reviews, and a good conversation with your team. You know your customers, your slow days, and how your business actually runs far better than we ever could.

Think of this as a starting point, not the full menu. Once we actually talk through your specific pain points, where leads go cold, what marketing has and hasn't worked, what you wish you could automate, the options open up well past what fit on these pages: Meta and Google ad campaigns, lead capture systems that feed straight into a CRM, custom dashboards, internal software built around exactly how you run things. Every page here can be swapped, dropped, or added to, once we sit down together.
