Zero Dimensions manages the Google Business Profiles of GastroPlus's four Ahmedabad branches. From June to October 2026 they recorded 6,169 calls, up 33% from 4,622 in the same months of 2025 (source: Google Business Profile).

The challenge

GastroPlus is a gastroenterology and liver hospital group, founded in 2017, with four hospitals in Ahmedabad: Vastrapur, Nikol, Bopal and Bapunagar. Patients who find it on Google mostly call a branch or ask for directions. From June to October 2025 the four profiles recorded 4,622 calls and 8,017 direction requests, against 603 website clicks.

The listings were named in different ways, and three names were padded with search phrases, which Google's guidelines don't allow. The branches were also very uneven on Google. From June to October 2025 Vastrapur's profile was seen 36,354 times and Nikol's 7,143 times.

What we did

Took on all four Business Profiles

Since December 2025 we have managed the Google Business Profiles of all four GastroPlus branches, branch by branch.

Cleaned up and renamed the listings

We took the search phrases out of the listing names, so by January 2026 every branch showed a plain GastroPlus name. At the end of May 2026 we renamed each listing after its area: GastroPlus Vastrapur, GastroPlus Nikol, GastroPlus Bopal and GastroPlus Bapunagar. Patients can now see which branch is nearest before they call.

Put a messaging button on every profile

We added a messaging button to the Nikol profile in April 2026, so patients can message all four branches straight from Google. Messaging taps rose from 91 to 477 (June–October 2025 vs June–October 2026).

Ran Google Ads for each branch and tracked the calls

From 26 December 2025 we ran Google search ads, with a campaign for each branch by 18 January 2026. By 28 March 2026 the branch locations were linked to the ads, and in April 2026 we set up call tracking. That lets us count separately the calls and direction requests Google Ads credits to the ads.

Results

33% more calls, with three branches up about half

From June to October 2026 the four profiles recorded 6,169 calls, against 4,622 in the same months of 2025: 1,547 more, up 33%. Every month from June to October was between 23% and 41% above the same month a year earlier. From August to October alone, calls rose from 2,631 to 3,663, up 39%.

Vastrapur went from 1,342 to 2,089 calls (up 56%), Nikol from 1,292 to 2,013 (up 56%) and Bopal from 951 to 1,415 (up 49%). Added together, those three branches went from 3,585 to 5,517 calls, up 54%.

When the rise came

The four profiles averaged 31.4 calls a day from 26 December 2025 to 31 May 2026. Then they stepped up to 40.3 a day from 1 June to 31 October 2026, right after we renamed each listing by its area at the end of May.

Ad spend didn't drive the step. The four branch campaigns spent ₹21,109 a month in March–May 2026 and ₹21,324 a month in June–October 2026. Calls that Google Ads credits to the ads rose by about 1 a day, out of about 9 more calls a day in all. What rose was the share of people who called after seeing a profile: 6.9 calls per 100 profile views in June–October 2026, against 5.8 in January–May 2026 and 6.4 a year earlier.

More direction requests, up 40% in August–October

Direction requests rose from 8,017 in June–October 2025 to 9,405 in June–October 2026, up 17%. From August to October alone they rose from 4,047 to 5,668, up 40%. By branch, from June to October, Bopal was up 36%, Nikol 34% and Vastrapur 20%.

What else changed, and what didn't work

  • Google Ads ran alongside. For June–October 2026 Google Ads credits its ads with 451 of the profile calls and 655 of the direction requests (as reported by Google). Without those, calls still rose 24% (4,622 → 5,718) and direction requests 9% (8,017 → 8,750).
  • Outside factors. Searches naming GastroPlus nearly doubled, while generic searches stayed flat (at least 18,355 → 18,082). GastroPlus expanded its Nikol branch in 2025. Google's May 2026 core update (21 May–2 June) ended as calls stepped up.
  • Bapunagar lost ground. Its calls fell from 1,037 to 652 (−37%) and its direction requests from 1,127 to 669 (−41%), June–October.
  • Website clicks fell. Website clicks from the profiles fell from 603 to 345 (June–October) because almost none were recorded from early March to late August 2026. In September–October they were above the year before: 322 against 200.
