Intrepy Healthcare Marketing
Intrepy Healthcare Marketing runs medical SEO, paid ads, social, and websites for private practices, with the deepest focus on surgical groups. A practice uses it to turn treatment pages and ads into appointment requests, and to tie those requests back to a patient in the record system.
Strong fit
- An orthopedic or other surgical group that will invest in search for months
- A solo specialist who wants a starting SEO fee in writing
- A practice that can match marketing leads to visits in the EHR
Weak fit
- A brand that needs TV, print, and a national media plan
- A team that needs rankings transformed inside a month
- A buyer who wants one invoice to cover ads, social, and a new site at the SEO rate

Pricing
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Model | Custom SEO and related marketing. Solo-physician search is the entry offer. Larger practices are scoped as monthly retainers. Ads, social, and custom websites sit outside the SEO band. |
| What usually drives cost | Number of physicians and locations, how competitive the specialty keywords are, and how fast the practice wants to add content. Media spend for ads is separate. |
| Published pricing | SEO for a solo physician starts at $750 a month. Monthly SEO retainers for larger multi-physician practices are typically $3,000 to $5,000, and higher when the scope grows. A buyer can model the search line from those figures. Ads and website builds are not on that card, so the full engagement still means the buyer has to ask. |
Prerequisites for purchase
| Need | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What you need to get Intrepy to function | |
| A site the team can change, or a new site in scope | Search work depends on treatment pages, provider pages, and technical fixes. |
| A way to mark which inquiry became a patient, if you want the EHR link | The tracking tool is only useful when the practice can match a lead to a visit. |
| Time on the search clock | Meaningful movement is put near 100 days, and sustained results for large networks at 6 to 18 months. |
| What will maximize your value | |
| Start with the SEO fee in writing, then price ads separately | The published band covers search, not the whole menu. |
| Give the team one specialty's treatments to rank first | A surgical group with many service lines dilutes the first pages. |
| Use HIPAA-safe forms before you track conversions | Appointment forms can collect health information. |
| Deal-breakers | |
| You need a national consumer brand campaign with traditional media. | |
| You need search results inside a few weeks. | |
| You will not let the site change. | |
