Google reviews at spareday
Ask every customer the same way.
Google reviews for physios 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.
The request comes from the clinic rather than the treating physio, which keeps it comfortable to decline. It goes to every patient at the same point.
- Your wording
- A short request in your business’s voice, sent to every patient, from the clinic.
- 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 from the clinic, at a set point.
Use the same point for every patient.
- From the clinic, not the physio
- It keeps the clinical relationship clear.
- At the end of a treatment plan
- A natural point for every patient.
- To every patient, in one tap
- A link straight to the review form.
- 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. Keep reviews on your Google profile and do not copy them into advertising. Replies stay 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. To help new patients find you, see local SEO for physios; for calls you cannot answer, missed-call text back for physios. The same service for other businesses is on dentists and cafes.

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.
Should the physio ask the patient?
It is better coming from the clinic, so the clinical relationship stays clear and declining is easy.
Can we use reviews in our advertising?
Health advertising rules restrict testimonials, so keep reviews on your Google profile.
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.
