Local healthcare landscape in Desert Hot Springs
The city's General Plan, adopted May 26, 2020, says that as of 2019 Desert Hot Springs had no hospital or urgent care facility, and it names Desert Regional Medical Center in Palm Springs as the closest emergency room. The Desert Care Network site lists that hospital at 1150 N. Indian Canyon Dr. in Palm Springs, and the Desert Healthcare District's history page says its Board built and operated Desert Hospital, which the page identifies as Desert Regional Medical Center. The plan describes a Downtown that parallels the Arts and Culture District, where art galleries, studios, and events are concentrated, and a Spa & Resort District for properties overlying the hot water aquifer. It also refers to the Mission Lakes Country Club neighborhood, the Skybourne residential neighborhood and the area Cabot named Miracle Hill.

What we'd prioritize for a Desert Hot Springs practice
Picked from the figures above by fixed rules.
Room to stand out for dermatologists
None of the NPI-registered dermatologists list a practice address in Desert Hot Springs; nationally there is one for every 17,857 residents. Fewer local competitors in search for a dermatologist. See our marketing for dermatologists.
Start local SEO early
Across the seven provider groups on this page, Desert Hot Springs has 6.8 NPI-registered providers per 10,000 residents, against 22.3 for the US. The thinnest group is dermatologists, with none registered. With fewer competitors to outrank, local SEO comes first.
Spanish-language service pages
Spanish is spoken at home by 50.0% of Desert Hot Springs residents, against 13.6% nationally. We would add Spanish versions of the main service pages, forms and review requests in the website work.
Insurance and payment options first

What Our Clients Say
I’ve had a great experience working with Medi-Edge. They helped design and build our website and have also been handling our SEO and online advertising. I’ve been very satisfied with both the quality of their work and the results so far. Kellen, the owner, has been especially great to work with. He’s been very responsive, helpful, and personally involved whenever I’ve had questions or needed assistance. It’s been nice working with a company where the owner is accessible and genuinely cares about making sure you’re happy with the service. Overall, the entire team has been easy to work with and understands the needs of a dental practice. I would definitely recommend Medi-Edge to other dental /medical practices looking for help with their website, SEO, and digital marketing.
As a fairly new business going into our 5th year I can say this company truly walks it like they talk it. There are many companies promising new companies the stars and the moon and as a new business you have to take risks and invest. If your looking stop and sign up with this company, constant communication, monthly updates, and can always reach them whenever you need an update to your website or help with your google business. I'm glad we found this gem and we always keep it real at IMED DTLA so if your a new business this is your sign. Not only are the prices reasonable the work is amazing and efficient!
I’ve had a great experience with media-edge marketing Kellen and his team are very responsive and always get to my requests in a timely manner. They are also kind, flexible and seem to care about my business and success which is important to me as a new small business owner. Looking forward to growing with them!
