Medical professionals often rely on word-of-mouth and institutional affiliations, but Dr. Valk needed a dedicated website to introduce himself directly to patients. Existing online information was fragmented, making it difficult for prospective patients to understand his background, expertise, and approach to care. The website needed to communicate professionalism and credibility while remaining accessible to patients with varying levels of medical knowledge.
The challenge was to present specialized orthopedic information in a way that felt clear and reassuring rather than technical or intimidating. The site needed to balance authority with approachability, guiding users to key information such as specialties, background, and contact details without unnecessary friction. Accessibility, readability, and a calm visual tone were essential considerations throughout the design process.
I designed the website with a clear information hierarchy, prioritizing ease of navigation and readability. Content was structured to answer common patient questions quickly—who Dr. Valk is, what he specializes in, and how to get in touch—while maintaining a professional, medical-appropriate aesthetic. The site was developed using a modern no-code platform, allowing for efficient implementation and future content updates without technical overhead.
