Why does YouTube work for this trade?
Heart disease is one of the most searched medical topics in Pakistan, and a long Urdu answer keeps earning for years.
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 YouTube want from a cardiologist account?
Your themes stay the same everywhere; what changes is the shape they take here. 2 to 3 videos a month, 8 to 15 minutes — and each of these translates into a different kind of YouTube post.

How does YouTube decide who sees a post?
YouTube decides almost everything on click-through rate and average view duration. It shows your thumbnail to a small test group, watches how many click and how long they stay, then widens or quietly stops. Search still matters for how-to, price and comparison topics in Urdu, where competition is far thinner than in English. Shorts run on a separate loop that rewards full watches and rewatches, not subscribers. Most real growth for Pakistani channels comes from Suggested, sitting beside a bigger channel's video.
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.

- 08Send a weekly WhatsApp report with impressions, click-through, average view duration and what we are changing next week
Should cardiology practices be anywhere else?
YouTube 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| #2 | 4 posts a week | The patient's wife and children do the research and the sharing, and they are on Facebook in Urdu. | |
| 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. |

YouTube questions from cardiology practices
Is YouTube actually worth it for cardiology practices?
Heart disease is one of the most searched medical topics in Pakistan, and a long Urdu answer keeps earning for years. We would rank it number 1 of the platforms worth your time in this trade, and run it at 2 to 3 videos a month, 8 to 15 minutes.
How often should a cardiologist business post on YouTube?
2 to 3 videos a month, 8 to 15 minutes. 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 YouTube before anything else?
Yes. For this trade YouTube is where we would start, and we would not add a second platform until it is posting reliably. Heart disease is one of the most searched medical topics in Pakistan, and a long Urdu answer keeps earning for years.
What is the first thing a cardiologist account gets wrong on YouTube?
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 YouTube posts should be answering, in 2 to 3 videos a month, 8 to 15 minutes
What does it cost to have someone run my YouTube 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.
