- Dr Meeta Malik Medident Dental Clinic (220 m): https://directindex.org/r/medident.in

## What to fix first
- **No list of services and prices found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they treat and what does it cost?' from directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- **Structured data found (LocalBusiness).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Appointments on your own site.** Agents can book an appointment without going through a marketplace.
