What reviews, press and directories say about The Miami Hand.
3.7from 159 reviews on Google
Despite some successful surgical outcomes, the center struggles with significant wait times and management issues, impacting patient satisfaction. The experience at this surgical center is often marred by excessive wait times, with patients frequently reporting waits of over two hours past their scheduled appointments. While some patients have had successful procedures like 4-Corner Fusion and wrist fracture treatments, the overall sentiment leans towards frustration due to poor time management and communication.
The AI Score is out of 100, read from 8 signals across search and AI.

Despite some successful surgical outcomes, the center struggles with significant wait times and management issues, impacting patient satisfaction. (AI guess, from 159 reviews.)
It measures how likely AI engines are to recommend a business, and how accurately. Miami surgical centers run 25 to 34. Fair starts at 45, good at 65. The Miami Hand scores 26, below the Miami average of 28. The same method scores every business on the registry.
| Signal | Weight | Score | What it measures | The Miami Hand |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Retrieval grounding | 26 | 0 | Whether you appear in the ranked results AI retrieves and cites: AI-Overview citations, organic top-10 for your money queries, and the Bing index ChatGPT leans on. | Poor |
| Off-property attestation | 20 | 42 | Volume and consistency of what others say about you: YouTube mentions, branded web mentions, third-party “best-of” lists. The cause of retrievability. | Poor |
| AI visibility | 14 | 0 | Whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and AI Overviews name you, and whether they name you for the right service. | Poor |
| Reviews & response | 12 | 85 | The star average is only one input. We also read volume, velocity, the specificity of review language, and response cadence. Specific reviews are what AI quotes verbatim. | Good |
| Backlink & citation authority | 8 | 55 | Domain authority and editorial quality of the sources that attest to you. | Fair |
| Google Business Profile | 8 | 84 | Required and recommended fields; update cadence. The listing AI pulls from first. | Good |
| Speed & mobile | 7 | 43 | Core Web Vitals at the 75th percentile, on a real phone. | Poor |
| Content freshness & schema | 5 | 80 | Crawl recency, intent alignment, valid JSON-LD, canonicals. | Good |

Where this page sits in the registry. It's one profile among the surgical centers in Miami, linked to the lists and towns around it.
This is exactly what this page sends to Google, Bing, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini. We publish it in the open for two reasons: so you can see nothing here is hidden or made up, and so any business or developer can copy it.
