Marin Modern Dentistry

Dr. Steven McConnell needed a site that matched the quality of his practice — premium, trust-forward, and built to convert nervous first-time patients into booked appointments.

The situation

Dr. McConnell runs one of Marin County's most respected dental practices. His work is exceptional — but his old website didn't come close to communicating that. It looked like a generic dental template from 2015: stock photos of strangers smiling, a phone number buried at the bottom, and no clear reason for a new patient to choose him over the practice down the street.

New patients in Marin County are discerning. They Google. They compare. They make snap judgments based on first impressions. A site that looks outdated signals an outdated practice — regardless of how modern the actual care is.

What we built

We built a trust-first site designed around how a hesitant new patient actually makes a decision. Every section was sequenced to reduce anxiety and build confidence before asking for the appointment.

Premium visual identity
Deep teal (#0C1E24) with warm cream and muted gold — a palette that reads as clinical-but-human. Cormorant Garamond for the display type communicates heritage and care.
Trust-layered homepage
Hero → credentials → services → patient testimonials → meet the doctor → before/after → insurances accepted → easy booking. Every section removes a reason not to book.
Services page
Detailed breakdowns of every service with plain-English explanations — no jargon. Designed to help patients self-identify before calling.
SEO foundation
LocalBusiness JSON-LD schema, Google Business Profile integration, sitemap, and meta tags — all set up on day one so the site starts ranking immediately.

"I didn't realize how much my old site was costing me until I saw the new one. Now when I hand a card to someone, I actually want them to look it up."
