Google reviews at spareday
Ask every customer the same way.
Google reviews for dentists come from asking each customer at a consistent point, with a short message that links straight to your review form.
spareday sets up the request, the timing and a routine for replying, within Google’s rules. You approve the wording, and every customer is asked the same way. Based in Newcastle, spareday works with businesses across Australia.

What’s included
A simple request, sent at the right point.
Clinicians are busy in the chair and the front desk is taking payments, so a request that depends on someone remembering is easy to miss. An automatic request from the practice goes to every patient at the same point.
- Your wording
- A short request in your business’s voice, sent to every patient at the point you choose.
- A direct link
- One tap opens your Google review form, so nobody has to search for your listing.
- Consistent timing
- The request goes out at the same point for everyone, so nobody has to remember to ask.
- Replies to reviews
- A short, polite reply to each review, including the critical ones.
When to ask
Ask at a set point, for every patient.
Choose points that apply to everyone, so the request is never selective.
- The end of a treatment plan
- A natural point, and the clinician can mention it.
- After a same-day emergency appointment
- Once the immediate problem has been treated.
- After the visit types you choose
- Sent automatically, so it does not depend on who is at the desk.
- Pick the moment
- Choose the point in your work when customers can judge it fairly.
- Write the message
- Short, in your words, with a link straight to your review form.
- Send it to every customer
- Automatically where your systems allow, at the same point for everyone.
- Reply to what comes in
- Briefly and politely, including to critical reviews.
Within the rules
Follow Google’s review rules.
- No incentives
- No discount, gift or donation in return for a review, under any name. It breaks Google’s policy, and the reviews can be removed later.
- Ask everyone the same way
- Choosing who to ask based on how they feel is called gating, and it breaks Google’s policy.
- Real customers only
- Every review comes from a real customer. Nobody in the business writes them.
Advertising a health service has its own rules, including Ahpra’s guidance on testimonials. Reviews on your Google profile are separate from your advertising, so do not copy them into ads or onto your website. Keep replies brief and general.
The review link and any messaging accounts sit in your business’s name, so the setup keeps working if you stop working with us. Ongoing support is agreed in the quote.
If your reviews are already recent and steady, you may not need this, and we will say so. For your website, see web design for dentists; to help new patients find you, local SEO for dentists. The same service for other practices is on physios, gyms, lawyers, mortgage brokers and cafes, or read about spareday.

A few practical details
Before we get started.
Can we offer something in return for a review?
No. Any incentive, including a discount or a donation, breaks Google’s policy, and the reviews can be removed.
Can we only ask customers we know were happy?
No. Asking selectively is called gating and breaks Google’s policy. The request goes to every customer at the same point.
Can we use reviews on our website or in ads?
Health advertising rules restrict testimonials, so keep reviews on your Google profile and do not republish them in advertising.
What can we say in a reply?
A brief, general thank you. Never confirm someone is a patient or discuss their treatment.
What should I send for a quote?
How your work finishes, how you contact customers and how you ask for reviews now. We discuss the setup and provide a free quote.
