+## Findings
+
+### Finding #1: Phone number inconsistent across 1 surface(s)
+
+- **Severity:** 🟥 Immediate
+- **Category:** Digital Identity
+- **Recommendation:** Standardize phone format across all directories. GBP is authoritative.
+- **Evidence:** ```json
+{
+  "google": "(916) 939-0889",
+  "apple": "+1 (916) 939-0889",
+  "website": "6389012842"
+}
+```
+
+### Finding #2: Address inconsistent across 1 surface(s)
+
+- **Severity:** 🟥 Immediate
+- **Category:** Digital Identity
+- **Recommendation:** Standardize exact address format. GBP address is authoritative.
+- **Evidence:** ```json
+{
+  "google": "1010 White Rock Rd #500, El Dorado Hills, CA 95762",
+  "apple": "1010 White Rock Rd, Unit 500, El Dorado Hills, CA  95762"
+}
+```
+
+### Finding #3: Hours mismatch on 5 day(s) — GBP is authoritative
+
+- **Severity:** 🟥 Immediate
+- **Category:** Google Business
+- **Recommendation:** Correct hours on non-GBP surfaces to match GBP. Mismatched hours cause customer complaints and trust loss.
+- **Evidence:** ```json
+[
+  {
+    "day": "monday",
+    "google": "8 AM-5 PM",
+    "apple_maps": "8:00 AM-5:00 PM"
+  },
+  {
+    "day": "tuesday",
+    "google": "8 AM-5 PM",
+    "apple_maps": "8:00 AM-5:00 PM"
+  },
+  {
+    "day": "wednesday",
+    "google": "8 AM-5 PM",
+    "apple_maps": "8:00 AM-5:00 PM"
+  },
+  {
+    "day": "thursday",
+    "google": "8 AM-5 PM",
+    "apple_maps": "8:00 AM-5:00 PM"
+  },
+  {
+    "day": "friday",
+    "google": "8 AM-1 PM",
+    "apple_maps": "8:00 AM-1:00 PM"
+  }
+]
+```
+
+### Finding #4: No JSON-LD schema found on website
+
+- **Severity:** 🟧 High
+- **Category:** Technical SEO
+- **Recommendation:** Add LocalBusiness/BeautySalon JSON-LD schema. Critical for rich results and local ranking.
+- **Evidence:** ```json
+{
+  "url": "http://www.goldenhillsfamilydental.net/",
+  "has_jsonld": false
+}
+```
+
+### Finding #5: Review count varies by 242 across surfaces
+
+- **Severity:** 🟨 Medium
+- **Category:** Reviews
+- **Recommendation:** Large review count gaps suggest some surfaces have stale or merged data. Verify listing ownership.
+- **Evidence:** ```json
+{
+  "google": 283,
+  "apple": 41
+}
+```
+
+### Finding #6: Cannot determine review recency — no dates available in samples
+
+- **Severity:** 🟨 Medium
+- **Category:** Reviews
+- **Recommendation:** Review date data is not available from current surfaces. Monitor via GBP dashboard directly.
+- **Evidence:** ```json
+{
+  "sources_with_dates": []
+}
+```
+
+### Finding #7: Category varies across surfaces: cosmetic dentist, health care
+
+- **Severity:** 🟨 Medium
+- **Category:** Digital Identity
+- **Recommendation:** Align primary category across all directories. GBP primary category is the ranking driver.
+- **Evidence:** ```json
+{
+  "google": "cosmetic dentist",
+  "apple": "health care"
+}
+```
+
+### Finding #8: Only 0% of sample reviews mention specific services or practitioners
+
+- **Severity:** 🟩 Enhancement
+- **Category:** Reviews
+- **Recommendation:** Encourage detailed reviews mentioning services and staff. Specific reviews rank higher and convert better.
+- **Evidence:** ```json
+{
+  "sample_size": 3,
+  "specific_count": 0
+}
+```
+
+### Finding #9: Price level not set on GBP or Apple Maps
+
+- **Severity:** 🟩 Enhancement
+- **Category:** Content
+- **Recommendation:** Set price level ($–$$$$) on GBP. Helps users self-select and improves relevance.
+
+### Finding #10: No Open Graph tags on website
+
+- **Severity:** 🟩 Enhancement
+- **Category:** Technical SEO
+- **Recommendation:** Add OG tags for proper link preview on social media and messaging apps.
+- **Evidence:** ```json
+{
+  "url": "http://www.goldenhillsfamilydental.net/"
+}
+```
