How to embed the Patient Acquisition Widget on your Website
During the onboarding process we want to provide our new customers the ability to generate patient leads as soon as possible. Because of this, we are able to offer the lead generating Patient Acquisition Widget for your existing website while your Practice Growth website is being built by our team. The widget is customer-enabled and allows you to simply embed a personalized code found in your Practice Growth Portal settings onto your existing website.
What will the Patient Acquisition Widget allow me to do?
Practice Growth customers onboarding can take advantage of online scheduling, reputation management, Practice Growth Connect (2-way text, Call-to-text, Web-to-text) and a custom button linking to an internal or external page (ie patient forms on your website or an external patient portal) while the Practice Growth website is being created.

Practice Growth Connect can be enabled from your Practice Growth dashboard under the Inbox tab. Online scheduling can be set up in the Calendar tab.
Please note: Please reach out to your Implementation Manager if your practice plans to use an EHR integrated calendar or have any questions related to enabling the widget, Practice Growth Connect, or online scheduling.
How do I embed this code?
The embed code can be found in your Practice Growth portal settings on the Embed Code tab within the Widget settings page. This embed code, <script>, should be copied and pasted into the <head> section of your website. The steps to apply it to your current website will differ depending on the website platform you currently use.
