## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Dentist, MedicalClinic, Physiotherapy or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No online booking link on the website.** (+13 points) There's only a phone number or WhatsApp, and agents can't use those yet. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add an online appointment page. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **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
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended.** (+3.7 points) These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents

## Fix kit: What to paste
