What Users Want From Mobile Sites

Recent statistics show that approximately 50 percent of local searches are performed on mobile devices. Other reports show an exponential rise in the number of patients searching for health information and providers on smartphones and tablets.

If your practice lacks a mobile web presence, you're failing to reach a huge and growing audience!

Making your practice's website mobile-friendly isn't just making sure that your site can be viewed on a tablet, iPhone or Android. Even if visitors can see your site on their mobile device, if they have to pinch, expand or zoom into the screen to make out the content, or if the links and drop-down menus aren't formatted to accommodate smaller screens, your visits may quickly leave out of frustration.

Dr. Leonardo creates properly formatted mobile sites that determine the type of device and operating system of the user, and automatically reformat the entire website to suit each visitor. The resulting pull-down menus are simple to navigate using one hand, and text is easy to read because it's optimized for viewing on a mobile device.
