Why does Facebook work for this trade?
The patient's wife and children do the research and the sharing, and they are on Facebook in Urdu.
Who you are reaching here
Men over 40 who just got a frightening lipid report, wives and daughters doing the actual research, and anyone whose brother or father had a stent last year. Diabetics and smokers form the core of it.
What holds this trade back
Your busiest referral source is a cardiac event, so you meet patients at their most frightened and least able to choose.
What does Facebook want from a cardiologist account?
Your themes stay the same everywhere; what changes is the shape they take here. 4 posts a week — and each of these translates into a different kind of Facebook post.

Is this a heart attack?
Gas or heart: five differences, said plainly in Urdu
- 02
Numbers that matter
Reading your own lipid profile line by line
- 03
Living with it

How does Facebook decide who sees a post?
The main feed is now mostly recommended Reels and video, the same as everywhere else — but in Pakistan the intent still lives in Groups and Marketplace, and those run on their own rules. Comments and shares count for far more than reactions, and a post that starts a real argument in the comments travels furthest. Paid reach is genuinely cheap here, and the blue Boost button wastes money: a proper campaign built in Ads Manager costs a fraction per enquiry.
Formats, lengths, caption limits and the best posting windows in Pakistan Standard Time are the same whatever trade you are in, so they live in one place rather than being repeated on every guide.

If you would rather not do the above yourself, this is exactly what we take off you. Managed Facebook for cardiology practices starts at PKR 70,000+ a month.
- 01Re-cut the vertical videos we already made for TikTok and Instagram into Facebook Reels under 90 seconds, with captions written for an older reader
- 02Post three times a week on the page with the price, the area and the WhatsApp number visible in the post itself
- 03Post into the local buy-and-sell and community groups your customers already sit in, at a pace that does not get you removed for spam
- 04Keep the About section, hours, service area and cover photo matching your Google Business Profile exactly
- 05Build and watch Meta ad campaigns daily in Ads Manager instead of using Boost, and show you the cost per enquiry every week
- 06Answer page messages and comments, and move Marketplace enquiries into a WhatsApp conversation
- 07Create and refresh Marketplace listings with daylight photos and honest prices so they keep surfacing
- 08Report monthly on reach, cost per enquiry and exactly which post brought the phone calls
Should cardiology practices be anywhere else?
Facebook first. After it is running steadily, these are the next platforms worth your time in this trade — in this order.
| Platform | Priority | How often | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| YouTube | #1 | 2 to 3 videos a month, 8 to 15 minutes | Heart disease is one of the most searched medical topics in Pakistan, and a long Urdu answer keeps earning for years. |
| WhatsApp Channels | #3 | 2 broadcasts a week, daily through Ramadan | Medicine reminders, Ramadan timing guidance and follow-up nudges reach your existing patients without a public thread. |
| #4 | 3 Reels a week | Younger patients with a family history and a scary lipid report are increasingly found here rather than on Facebook. |

Facebook questions from cardiology practices
Is Facebook actually worth it for cardiology practices?
The patient's wife and children do the research and the sharing, and they are on Facebook in Urdu. We would rank it number 2 of the platforms worth your time in this trade, and run it at 4 posts a week.
How often should a cardiologist business post on Facebook?
4 posts a week. That figure is set by what this trade can sustain, not by what the platform would like. Posting three times a week for a year beats posting daily for a month and then stopping.
Should cardiology practices be on Facebook before anything else?
No. YouTube comes first for cardiology practices — Facebook is number 2 here. It is worth adding once the first platform is steady, for the reason above.
What is the first thing a cardiologist account gets wrong on Facebook?
Posting about the business instead of about the customer's problem. Your busiest referral source is a cardiac event, so you meet patients at their most frightened and least able to choose. That is what your Facebook posts should be answering, in 4 posts a week
What does it cost to have someone run my Facebook account?
From PKR 15,000 a month with us. For cardiology practices we usually recommend Pro at PKR 70,000+. A cardiologist is building a decade-long personal brand across YouTube, Facebook and a WhatsApp channel for existing patients. Pro runs all three together with a planned calendar and a call every two weeks.
