Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.3 s · 312 KiBAbout 312 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.3 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.1 s13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.1 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.0 s · 224 KiB9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (224 KiB).
Improve image delivery
900 ms · 250 KiB3 images could be 250 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 66
66/100Your mobile performance score is 66. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and jQuery CDN and others), adding 1.0 MB and 503 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 60 KiBAbout 60 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 283 ms
283 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 283 ms of main-thread work and 471 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Legacy JavaScript
100 ms · 12 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 12 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 108 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.0 s
A phone's processor spends 1.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 510 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 4 ms
4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 15.5 s
15.5 sYour largest element takes 15.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 15.5 s
15.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 15.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.9 s
2.9 sThe first text or image appears after 2.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Speed Index: 3.6 s
3.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 3.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
2 images without width and height
2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
-6%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 79 ms to 72 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
-8%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.8 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).
Real-user CLS: 0.01
0.01For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Real-user FCP: 1.0 s
1.0 sReal visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 185 ms
185 msScripts block the page for only 185 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.3 MB in 69 requests
2.3 MBYour homepage downloads 2.3 MB in 69 requests on a phone: images 975 KiB (9), scripts 970 KiB (30) and fonts 297 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images in older formats
3 images (713 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.65 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.65 g of CO₂e: 78.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
<html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)
<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
4 images without alt text
4 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (14 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 14 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
5 links without text
5 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (21 characters)
Your title is only 21 characters: “Buffalo Medical Group”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Connect to Care from Home” and “Connect to Care from Home”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
3 links with vague text
3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
2 links crawlers can't follow
2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
52 internal links, 9 external
The homepage links to 52 pages on buffalomedicalgroup.com and 9 external pages.
5 checks passed
Meta description: 143 characters
Your meta description is 143 characters: “At Buffalo Medical Group, we’re dedicated to treating people well by delivering comprehensive care that’s as convenient…”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.buffalomedicalgroup.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, WebPage and WebSite.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://buffalomedicalgroup.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (491 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
16 pages share a title
/, /patients, /patients/new-patients, /telehealth, /patients/hello-patient and /patients/covid-19-patient-care and 10 others all use the title “Buffalo Medical Group”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
6 pages without a meta description
/telehealth, /patients/hello-patient, /patients/covid-19-patient-care, /blog, /patients/telehealth and /buffalo-medical-group-offers-expanded-services-at-south-transit-road-lockport-location have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /patients/telehealth, whose canonical is /telehealth. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 17 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
4 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

Best practices
7 small tap targets
7 of 30 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
1 distorted image
1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.
2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
No Content-Security-Policy
No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
No clickjacking protection
Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.
Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 0 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
5 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (buffalomedicalgroup.com).
Valid certificate (37 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR1 verifies for buffalomedicalgroup.com and is valid for another 37 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://buffalomedicalgroup.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 39 links work
All 39 links checked from your homepage (30 internal, 9 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
buffalomedicalgroup.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
DNSSEC is off
buffalomedicalgroup.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
2 checks passed
Domain is 27 years old
27 yearsbuffalomedicalgroup.com was registered in Jan 1999 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Jan 2030
buffalomedicalgroup.com is registered until Jan 2030.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 17 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
About 445 words of copy
The homepage carries about 445 words of visible text.
4 checks passed

On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “CONTACT US” and “LEARN MORE”.
8 calls to action
The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Learn More” and “Contact Free Arrival Tutorial”.
1 short form
A short form (2 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Hotjar.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be buffalomedicalgroup.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 70/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 mx a:mail.buffalomedicalgroup.com include:spf-00239801.pphosted.com ~all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “s1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
5 trackers load before any consent
5Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Meta Pixel (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.
