Websites for Wichita dental, chiropractic, physical therapy and veterinary clinics.
New patients choose a clinic on three questions: do you take my insurance, can I get in soon, and what will it cost. A clinic website should answer all three before the phone rings, and keep health information in the systems built to hold it.
The short answer
A clinic website in Wichita should list the insurance plans you accept, offer online booking or an appointment request, publish new-patient steps and self-pay prices, and send any form that asks about symptoms, history, medications or insurance IDs through your HIPAA-covered patient portal, never a plain web form or email. Point It Here builds the site for $499 plus $49 a month, or $1,449 once.
What a new patient checks first
Insurance comes first. A family that just changed employers, or moved to Wichita with a spouse posted at McConnell, searches for a dentist or chiropractor and immediately looks for their plan's name. If it is not on the page, they call, or they move on.
Then timing: can I get in this week, do you have early or evening hours, what do I do if I am in pain today. Then cost, especially for self-pay patients and for treatment insurance often does not cover. Then the people: who they will see, and whether the office feels calm. Pet owners add one urgent question of their own: is this an emergency, and who answers after hours.
What a clinic site needs
- The insurance plans you accept, by name, updated from your phone when a contract changes
- Online booking through your practice software, or an appointment request that asks only for name, phone and a preferred time
- A new-patient page: what to bring, how early to arrive, and the link to your intake forms in your patient portal
- Self-pay prices or an in-house membership plan, if you offer one
- What to do in an emergency, during hours and after
- A page for each provider, and one for each main treatment written for patients rather than colleagues
- Built to WCAG 2.2 AA, which matters more here than almost anywhere, since many patients are older or have a disability
Patient forms and health information
Where each form should live, in plain words. This is practical guidance, not legal advice.
The website's own contact form should collect only what it takes to call someone back: name, phone or email, and a preferred time. It should say plainly not to include medical details. Anything more goes through a tool built for health information.
Send these through your HIPAA-covered patient portal or intake tool
- New-patient intake and medical or dental history
- Insurance card photos, member IDs and subscriber details
- Medication and allergy lists, and the reason for the visit in any detail
- Consent, treatment and financial agreement forms
- Records requests, referrals and any uploaded file such as an x-ray
That tool is usually part of the practice management software you already pay for, and the vendor signs a business associate agreement with your practice. The website links to it or embeds it. The site itself does not collect or store patient health information, and we do not describe it as HIPAA compliant. Whether a given tool meets your obligations is a decision for you and your compliance advisor.
Keep analytics and advertising pixels off pages where patients log in or enter health details. HHS has warned covered practices about tracking tools on exactly those pages. We set up call and booking counts without them.
Veterinary clinics: HIPAA covers people, not pets, but an owner's contact and payment details still deserve the same care.
The practice software you already run
Dental offices tend to run Dentrix, Eaglesoft or Open Dental, chiropractors ChiroTouch or Jane, physical therapists WebPT, and vet clinics ezyVet, AVImark or Cornerstone, often with an online scheduling or reminder service on top. We link or embed the booking and intake pages those tools provide, so appointments land in the schedule your front desk already works from.
Appointment and recall reminders stay in that software too. It already knows who is due, and it is the right place for anything that mentions a patient's care.
What to add, and what to keep out
| Add-on | What it does for a clinic | Price |
|---|---|---|
| AI Front Desk | Answers hours, insurance accepted, parking and what a new patient needs, then takes a name and callback number. Set up to steer people away from sharing symptoms and to hand anything clinical to your staff | $299 setup, then $99 a month |
| Get Found on Google | Complete map listing, hours and holiday closures kept right, reviews answered without confirming anyone is a patient | $99 a month |
| Stay in Touch | General newsletters, new-provider news and, for vets, vaccine clinic dates. Nothing about an individual's care | $249 setup, then $79 a month |
| Accessibility review | A written WCAG 2.2 report, tested with screen readers and keyboard only | Quoted |
We meet practice owners at the clinic, before patients arrive or after the last one leaves, across Wichita, Andover, Bel Aire and Maize, where new subdivisions keep sending families looking for a dentist and a vet.

Questions owners ask us
Do dental and clinic websites need HIPAA-compliant forms?
Any form that collects health information, such as intake, history, insurance IDs or symptoms, should go through a tool whose vendor signs a business associate agreement with your practice, usually your patient portal. The website's own contact form should ask only for a name, a number and a preferred time. Your compliance advisor makes the final call on each tool.
Is Point It Here HIPAA compliant?
We do not claim that. We build clinic sites so that patient health information never passes through the website: it goes into your practice's covered patient portal or intake tool, which the site links to or embeds.
Can patients book appointments online from our website?
Yes, if your practice software offers online scheduling, and most do. We link or embed it so bookings land in your existing schedule. If you would rather confirm each one, a short request form sends name, phone and preferred time to your front desk.
Should we list the insurance plans we accept?
Yes, by name. It is the first thing new patients look for, and a clear list saves your front desk a stream of calls. You can update it from your phone when a contract changes.
Should a clinic publish prices?
Self-pay prices for common visits and any membership plan help uninsured patients decide, and they build trust with everyone else. Publish what you can keep accurate, and say what can change the price.
Does HIPAA apply to a veterinary clinic's website?
HIPAA protects people's health information, not animals' records, so a vet clinic is not a covered entity for its patients. Owners' names, addresses and card details still deserve careful handling, and we treat them that way.
How much does a dental or chiropractic website cost in Wichita?
Ours is $499 to build and $49 a month for hosting and care, or $1,449 once, for up to 10 pages and one backend system. The patient portal you already pay for stays where it is and is linked in. See pricing for the full list.
