Research-first healthcare context
VeinCare entered a new market where patients needed reassurance before they were ready to book. The experience had to explain care clearly, reduce uncertainty, and make scheduling feel accessible without pressuring people into a decision.
Evidence before interface
Research and card sorting shaped the information architecture. The card sort reached 100% agreement, giving the site a clear structure for patient questions, care pathways, and scheduling intent.
Scheduling-first IA
The site prioritized self-serve booking and practical FAQs so patients could understand what to expect before contacting the practice. Trust came before persuasion, and accessibility came before conversion.
Outcomes
The project delivered 4.9/5 satisfaction, 100% agreement on the information architecture, and live online scheduling. Client and practice details are anonymized to protect the healthcare provider.
