"Request Appointment" link appears immediately after the nav, linking to /contact-us — visible without scrolling.
56% — 🟠 Needs Work. Peach Family Dental Group has a clean, friendly WordPress (Divi) site with a working click-to-call number, an above-the-fold "Request Appointment" CTA, and genuine doctor bios with strong professional credentials. However, the storefront is undermined by a template-contamination problem: the meta description, team page, map links, and a second/third phone number all reference other practices (Outshine Family Dental in Louisiana, Brushy Creek Dental Partners, Dhillon Family Dentistry SC), and the conversion engine is thin — no online booking widget, no new-patient offer, no on-site reviews, no insurance carrier list, and an empty Membership Plan page.
Biggest strength: Credible, well-written doctor bios with real affiliations (ADA, GDA, AGD Fellow, Hinman) plus a strong 5.0 Google rating. Biggest gap: Brand/data integrity — wrong practice names, wrong meta description, three conflicting phone numbers, and contradictory hours erode trust and SEO simultaneously.

All 13 sitemap pages and core service pages return HTTP 200. The single material defect is the "Pay Now" external link (bill.care 404), which appears on every page in the primary navigation. 404 handling itself is healthy — Fort Valley-branded, not a generic server error.

| # | Action | Effort | Impact |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Purge all wrong-practice content: meta description ("Outshine Family Dental"), /our-team ("Brushy Creek" + "Need" placeholder staff), stray map links (Dhillon SC, Periodontal Memphis) | Med | Critical |
| 2 | Add a specific new-patient offer in the hero (e.g., "$99 New Patient Exam, X-rays & Cleaning" or free implant/cosmetic consult) | Low | Critical |
| 3 | Fix the "Pay Now" link (bill.care/practice/b932 → 404) — correct practice ID or working payment URL | Low | High |
| 4 | Embed a real online booking widget so "Request Appointment" books instead of routing to a form | High | Critical |
| 5 | Build out the Membership Plan page (tiers, price, benefits) — link is live but dead-ends on a blank page | Med | High |
| 6 | Embed a live Google reviews widget (5.0★) on homepage + add a /reviews page | Med | High |
