Borderline visible. AI bots can crawl Healthgrades, but the structured-data signals are thin - you are at real risk of being skipped when buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity for a recommendation.

About Healthgrades
from our crawl and measurement
Healthgrades is a San Marcos, TX business whose own site puts it this way: "Dr. Nicholas Lin, MD is a family medicine physician in Kahului, HI and has over 15 years of experience in the medical field." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 4.2 out of 10.
Our crawl found structured data on the page (Physician, MedicalWebPage), a readable heading structure. It also found the gaps that keep answer engines guessing: an llms.txt file, a sitemap.
AI crawlers have visited the site 2 times in our tracking, so the engines are already looking.

What this score means
Your AEO score measures whether AI search engines - ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini - can actually read your site and cite it in answers. Roughly two-thirds of sites are invisible to them. At 4.2/10, Healthgrades is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
