Use Case 3
• Patient lands on this page after searching the phrase “heart
valve surgeons” in Google.
• She feels comfortable she’s on a page relevant to her needs
after glancing at the images of doctors in the banner, and
reading the banner headline.
• She becomes a bit confused though when scanning the logo
and tagline. She wonders if the surgeon directory is only
available in a book she must purchase.
• She then reads the headline “Free Heart Valve Surgeon
Directory” and becomes reassured.
• Scrolling down to the lime green box, she notes that searches
are available by geographic location – an important feature, as
she’d prefer not to travel too far.
• Not sure what the video is about or why she should watch,
she skips down to click the “Start Search” button.
