About AltOptix
We help dental, optometry, and medical practices attract more patients, streamline scheduling and operations, and automate the busywork with modern growth systems.
Our Mission
Creating Top Performing Websites
AltOptix designs, hosts, and optimizes websites for dental, optometry, and medical practices. We stay focused on the client: we work closely with you from the first conversation through launch, so the finished site fits your practice and your patients.
A good website puts your practice in front of more people searching for care. That means more traffic, more clicks on your phone number and booking links, and more new patients, which adds up to more revenue.

Our Story
Built for Patient Growth, By a Chicago-Area Advocate
Austin Steen founded AltOptix after seeing independent dental, optometry, and medical practices lose new patients to competitors with a sharper online presence: outdated websites that never turned visitors into booked appointments, and almost no visibility on Google.
AltOptix closes that gap with three services that work as one system. We design and host a fast, secure website. SEO keeps your practice showing up when local patients search. Google Ads put you in front of them right now. Ads bring traffic immediately, SEO builds visibility that lasts, and the website turns both into booked appointments.

Our Approach
A Strategic Partner, Not Just a Vendor
We take the time to understand your practice, your patients, and your growth goals before we build anything, then stay involved after launch so the results keep coming.
Before founding AltOptix, Austin spent about 10 years in enterprise IT infrastructure. He started on the data center floor, racking and cabling servers, storage arrays, and network switches, and worked up to Linux and Storage Engineer. In that role he handled storage, backups, middleware, and automation, and he hosted, built, and maintained the infrastructure behind large business websites. Your website is only as dependable as what it runs on. That is why AltOptix treats hosting, security, backups, and uptime as real infrastructure, managed the way large businesses manage theirs, not an afterthought bundled in to check a box.
What Sets Us Apart
Why Practices Choose AltOptix
We work only with dental, optometry, and medical practices. Site structure, copy, and booking paths are built around how patients choose a provider.
Fast, mobile-first pages with clear calls to action, so more of the people who land on your site call or book instead of leaving.
Google Ads put you in front of patients searching right now. SEO builds the ranking that keeps them coming. Both send people to pages built to convert.
Fast, secure, backed-up, and monitored hosting, run by someone with 10 years in enterprise infrastructure, so visitors stay on a site that stays up.
