It measures how likely AI engines are to recommend a business, and how accurately. Knoxville surgical centers run 23 to 52. Fair starts at 45, good at 65. Knoxville Orthopaedic scores 38. The same method scores every business on the registry.

Where this page sits in the registry. It's one profile among the surgical centers in Knoxville, 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. Being a good local AI steward means the machine version says exactly what the human version says.
