I just got a client which is a private medical center facility with 5 physical locations. Thus far there´s no issue because each of those locations has its own GMB listing.

My doubt comes in regards to all the doctors that offer their services in those facilities.
  • Can they also have their own GMB listing?
  • How does this work?
Any input will deeply be appreciated!

Cheers and be well!
 
I’m pretty sure they can, but you should just ask in localseocommunity instead of here. Or I know I’ve seen it google mention something about this
 
Yes, doctors can have their own listing. I've seen them get filtered out though.
 
I believe there's no problem, treat them same way office buildings which have different companies within the location or malls.

This is the local SEO community. THAT´S why I am asking here.

Mmmm

And what about their address? It doesn´t matter that it would be the same as the medical center when they offer their services? Would be there be like a conflict?
 
Is that a good "mmmmm" or an "I think you're full of shit" mmmmm?

it should not, the building will have its own address even may have a name or nickname it's well known for. So just indicate they are in lemon street 23, in the ''Roger Marquez Medical Center'' office 204, or 7th floor or however the location is managed within the building.

Lots of companies are located in a big office building together with other 20 different ones, in case of verification you have nothing to worry since it is a real location you can present papers, pictures or anything needed to prove the doctors are there.

Here a quick example of an Hospital in Paris:

I came across this scenario for one of my clients. If those doctors provide service in a specific room number or Suite then keep that in address and you can create a GMB listing. However, if the doctor's GMB ranks next to your client's GMB in maps for the same keywords, it would divert business to the one which has higher reviews, etc.
