What your patient sees on the review page

When you ask a patient for a review, the link opens a short page. This page explains what the patient does, and what you see afterwards.

Who can do this: Everyone on your team can send requests. See Ask patients for reviews.

The review page for Maple Street Dental asking How was your visit, with a row of five empty stars and a Submit button

  1. The page asks How was your visit? with your office name underneath.
  2. They tap 1 to 5 stars. A short line appears: 1 “We’re sorry to hear that”, 2 “We’ll work to improve”, 3 “Thanks for your honesty”, 4 “We’re glad you enjoyed it!”, 5 “Amazing! Thank you so much!”.
  3. They tap Submit.

What happens next depends on the rating:

Rating What the patient sees
4 or 5 stars “We’re so glad you loved it!” and a button for each review site you set up: Leave a Google Review, Leave a Yelp Review, Leave a Facebook Review
1 to 3 stars “Thank You for Your Feedback”. They’re thanked and told you’ll work to do better. No review-site buttons are shown

The 4 and 5 star result: We’re so glad you loved it, with buttons Leave a Google Review, Leave a Yelp Review and Leave a Facebook Review

The 1 to 3 star result: Thank You for Your Feedback and a short apology

If the patient opens the link again after rating, they see Already Submitted (“You’ve already shared your feedback. Thank you!”). Each request takes one rating, so a patient can’t change it.

On Front Desk → Reviews you see whether each request was Opened, Clicked (and which site), and the star rating once it’s given. See Ask patients for reviews. A rating also shows in your Pulse activity feed as “Left a {n}-star review”.

“Link Not Found”. The page says “This review link is invalid or has expired.” Send a new request.

The review-site buttons don’t appear after a 4 or 5 star rating. Check that the office has review links set up under Settings → Practice → Offices → Review Request Settings. The buttons only show for sites you’ve added. Check the links before you send requests.
