Schema Markup for a Pediatric Therapy Website

The right structured data lets a pediatric therapy network be understood — and quoted — by both search engines and AI answer systems.

In short

A pediatric therapy website should layer MedicalBusiness/MedicalClinic and LocalBusiness schema for each centre, Physician/MedicalTherapy and Service for clinical offerings, FAQPage and Speakable for question-led content, Organization with sameAs for entity authority, and BreadcrumbList plus WebSite SearchAction for navigation. The goal is a connected entity graph — every page asserts what it is, who delivers it, where, and how it relates to the wider organisation — so that both Google and generative AI engines can resolve and cite you confidently.

The schema stack that works

• Organization (root): one canonical Organization (or MedicalOrganization) node with name, logo, url, sameAs (verified social and authority profiles) and @id — the anchor every other entity references. This is the backbone of AI entity disambiguation.
• MedicalClinic / LocalBusiness per centre: each physical location carries address, geo, openingHours, telephone and medicalSpecialty. Use a stable @id per centre so multi-location presence is unambiguous.
• MedicalTherapy / Service: model each therapy (speech, occupational, physiotherapy, ABA, behavioural) as a Service or MedicalTherapy with provider referencing the Organization @id, plus serviceType and areaServed.
• Physician / Person: therapists and clinicians as Person/Physician nodes with jobTitle and credentials — feeds expertise signals (E-E-A-T).
• FAQPage + Speakable: for parent-question content, mark up FAQPage and add speakable cssSelector/xpath to your BLUF summaries so voice and AI surfaces can lift concise answers.
• BreadcrumbList + WebSite: BreadcrumbList on every deep page and a site-level WebSite with potentialAction (SearchAction) for sitelinks search.
• MedicalWebPage / Article: wrap condition and therapy explainers in MedicalWebPage with lastReviewed, reviewedBy and audience to signal currency and clinical review.

Keep everything as connected JSON-LD with shared @id references rather than isolated islands — a resolved entity graph is what AI engines reward.

Implementation discipline

• Validate with the Schema.org and Rich Results testing tools before deploy; one malformed node can suppress an entire graph.
• Never assert medical claims, outcomes or diagnoses in schema you cannot substantiate on-page — schema must mirror visible content.
• Avoid inventing review counts or aggregateRating you cannot evidence; misrepresentation risks manual action and erodes trust.
• Maintain dateModified and reviewedBy honestly to support clinical-content freshness.
