End-of-day surveys: At the end of each day, NexHealth reads your appointment list and automatically sends a feedback survey to all of your patients who completed their appointments. This can also be customized to send directly after each appointment if desired. The Review asks patients to rate their experience on a scale of one to five.

Positive reviews: If a patient had a great experience and rates it as a 4 or 5, they will be redirected to leave a review directly on your Google Business page. This way, positive experiences are shared publicly, helping to boost your reputation.

Negative reviews: If a patient did not have a great experience and rates it as 1, 2, or 3, they will be asked to leave feedback which will be shared only within NexHealth. This allows you to handle negative feedback in a more controlled manner.

Review management: You and your staff can view these reviews in your NexHealth dashboard by navigating to Reviews, and then selecting Performance. Clicking on the patient's name allows you to see their rating and view any feedback, so you can address it directly in a conversation with the patient. This way, negative feedback is managed privately and does not reach Google.

The goal of NexHealth Reviews is to make handling feedback easier and to boost your reputation by publicly promoting positive experiences and privately managing negative ones.

1. In general, while 70% of patients look to online reviews to help them decide how to choose a provider, only 10% - 15% of patients industry-wide leave reviews, and are most likely to do so only after a very positive or very negative experience.

2. The MOST effective way to increase your reviews is to let happy patients know how much you appreciate them leaving a review about their experience and ASK them to leave a review.

3 Explain to patients that they will receive a message asking them to rate their experience from 1 - 5, and then a prompt to post to Google. Let them know you'd appreciate it if they do both.

1. Navigate to NexHealth Home.

2. Select Reviews under Communications from the left side menu.

By default, reviews are sent every evening at 7:30 PM to patients seen that day with completed appointments. reviews are sent once every six months. Patients are asked to rate their experience from 1 - 5, and those who select a 4 or 5 are directed to a Google Review prompt to leave the rating and comments on Google. NexHealth does NOT post directly to Google. The patient must post their review to Google.

Contact NexHealth Support. We can quickly adjust the rating(s) you would prefer to be prompted to leave a review on Google. (e.g. if you prefer that only 5-star ratings receive the Google prompt, we can do that).
