+# Golden Hills Family Dental
+## Online Presence Audit
+
+**Location:** El Dorado Hills, CA  
+**Vertical:** Dental  
+**Audit date:** 15 August 2026  
+**Prepared for:** Golden Hills Family Dental  
+**Prepared by:** VeriPath
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+We audited Golden Hills Family Dental across its primary online surfaces: Google Business Profile, Apple Maps, and the business website. The business shows 5.0 ★ across 283 Google reviews. 
+**2 material integrity issues were identified:**
+
+1. Phone numbers are inconsistent across directories.
+2. The website lacks LocalBusiness structured data.
+
+---
+
+## Surfaces Reviewed
+
+| Surface | Status | Rating | Reviews |
+|---------|--------|--------|---------|
+| Google Business Profile | ✓ | 5.0 ★ | 283 |
+| Apple Maps | ✓ | 4.7 ★ | 41 |
+| Website | ✓ | — | — |
+

+
+## Findings
+
+### Finding 1: Phone number inconsistent across directories
+
+**Observation:**  
+Google lists **(916) 939-0889**. Apple lists **+1 (916) 939-0889**. Website lists **6389012842**.
+
+**Impact:**  
+Customers reaching the business through a single directory may call a disconnected or wrong number. Inconsistent NAP (name-address-phone) signals reduce local search ranking across all surfaces.
+
+**Recommendation:**  
+Confirm the correct primary number, then update every directory to match. Keep the verified number identical across Google, Apple, and the website.
+
+---
+
+### Finding 2: No JSON-LD schema found on website
+
+**Observation:**  
+{"url": "http://www.goldenhillsfamilydental.net/", "has_jsonld": false}
+
+**Impact:**  
+Without LocalBusiness structured data, AI assistants and structured search cannot reliably classify or cite the business's services, hours, and area served.
+
+**Recommendation:**  
+Add LocalBusiness JSON-LD (Dentist/Plumber/Contractor type) with name, address, phone, hours, and areaServed.
