Local healthcare landscape in Holyoke
Holyoke Medical Center, at 575 Beech Street, describes itself as an independent community hospital serving the health care needs of the Pioneer Valley. It is a member of Valley Health Systems in Holyoke, alongside Holyoke Medical Group and Holyoke VNA Hospice Life Care, and its About page dates the hospital's beginnings to 1893. The city's Comprehensive Plan Update says Holyoke is comprised of 15 neighborhoods. The original neighborhoods of the 1848 plan are in the Lower Four Wards, later trolley car neighborhoods grew from Highland Park to Elmwood, and rural neighborhoods include Smith's Ferry and Rock Valley. The plan also refers to Holyoke's Oakdale neighborhood and names the Flats, South Holyoke and downtown neighborhoods.

What we'd prioritize for a Holyoke practice
Picked from the figures above by fixed rules.
An opening for dermatologists
None of the NPI-registered dermatologists list a practice address in Holyoke; nationally there is one for every 17,857 residents. That leaves fewer local competitors for a dermatologist in search; see our marketing for dermatologists.
Start with reviews and the Google Business Profile
One NPI-registered dentist per 604 residents in Holyoke (US: one per 1,340). That works out to 2.2 times the US rate. We would start with the Google Business Profile and review management.
Service pages in Spanish
38.1% of Holyoke residents speak Spanish at home (US 13.6%). We would add Spanish versions of the main service pages, forms and review requests in the website work.
Put insurance and payment options up front
The median household income in Holyoke is $53,605, against $80,734 for the US. We would list plans accepted and financing options on every page of the service pages.

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.
