The intake
Doctors work in Richmond CA
Richmond is a city of around 116,000 people on the east shore of San Francisco Bay, and the demand for doctors here comes from a settled population that includes long time Richmond families, the Iron Triangle and South Richmond neighbourhoods, and the hillside areas above the city. People search for a primary care doctor near them, for a paediatrician who takes their insurance, and for urgent care on a Saturday. The searches are local and they are specific: a patient in the Richmond Annex is not looking for a practice across the bay. That is the demand available to a practice that publishes pages matching how people in this city actually search.
