Vera for Plastic Surgery

91% of Plastic Surgery Patients Read Reviews. How Many Are They Finding for You?

Plastic surgery is one of the highest-consideration decisions a patient will ever make. Before they call your office, they have already read 10 to 15 reviews. Vera automates review generation so your practice has the social proof volume to win those patients.

Optimal review request timing post-op

Plastic surgery review generation has a timing problem. Most practices ask for reviews immediately after an appointment — when the patient is still swollen, bruised, and not yet seeing results. That is the worst possible moment. Patients who haven't seen their final results are unlikely to leave a glowing five-star review.

Vera solves this by timing the review request to the 90-day post-op milestone — when swelling has resolved, the patient has seen their full results, and their satisfaction is at its peak. This single change is responsible for the dramatic difference in both review quantity and quality that ClinicClaw practices see.

Beyond timing, Vera's messages are personalized to each patient — referencing the procedure type at a high level (kept HIPAA-appropriate), the provider's name, and your practice. The result is a message that feels like a personal follow-up from your team, not an automated blast. Click-through rates average 24 to 31% for plastic surgery practices.

How It Works

1
Procedure date logged
When a surgery date is recorded in your scheduling system, Vera starts the 90-day review request clock.
2
Optional milestone check-ins before review request
Vera can send post-op day 7 and day 30 check-in messages to build the relationship before the review request arrives.
3
Review request SMS at 90 days
A personalized SMS with a direct Google review link lands at exactly the right moment — when the patient is delighted with their results.
4
Click tracked, review published
Vera logs every click and tracks the conversion. Your Google review count grows automatically while you focus on surgical care.

Common Questions

Is it HIPAA compliant to reference a patient's procedure in an SMS?
Vera's default templates do not reference specific procedures by name in the message body. The review request is written in general terms ('your experience with Dr. Carter') to maintain HIPAA compliance while still feeling personal.
Can we adjust the timing from 90 days to a different milestone?
Yes. 90 days is the default for most surgical procedures, but Vera's timing is fully configurable. Some practices prefer 60 days for less invasive procedures, or 6 months for reconstructive work.
What if a patient had complications or isn't satisfied?
You can configure Vera to skip review requests for flagged patient records. We recommend using this feature for any case where the outcome was not as expected, to protect the patient relationship.
