Our plan

What we'd prioritize for a Bay City practice

Chosen by fixed rules from the figures above.

  1. An opening for dermatologists

    None of the NPI-registered dermatologists list a practice address in Bay City; nationally there is one for every 17,857 residents. Fewer local competitors in search for a dermatologist. See our marketing for dermatologists.

  2. Hold on to existing patients

    Between April 2020 and July 2025, Bay City lost 797 residents (−2.4%). With fewer new residents arriving, we would set up patient texting first, to keep existing patients coming back.

  3. Insurance and payment options first

    Median household income $49,420 (US $80,734). We would list plans accepted and financing options on every page of the website.
