Site: https://www.lotusclinic.co.uk/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/lotusclinic.co.uk
Scanned: 2026-10-14 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Lotus Clinic is partly visible to agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by the website of Lotus Clinic. It finds no menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Dentalhub.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://uk.dentalhub.online/soe/new/Lotus%20Clinic?pid=UKLCL01 (through dentalhub acting for the business)
- Phone: +44 20 8201 8080

## 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 with services and prices as text and link it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Live fetches as ClaudeBot (http_429), PerplexityBot (http_429) were refused while a normal browser got the page. This is usually a hosting or firewall bot list the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
- **Structured data present (LocalBusiness).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Appointments through dentalhub on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.
