  sitemap.xml — drshruthineela.com
  Regenerated: 2026-06-21
  Total URLs: 37 (matches the 37 pages actually built to site root by build.js)

  IMPORTANT: every URL entry below matches the rel="canonical" link declared on
  its page exactly — the extensionless form (https://drshruthineela.com/mastectomy),
  with the homepage as the bare root (https://drshruthineela.com/). .htaccess now
  serves the matching .html file internally for these clean URLs and 301-redirects
  any incoming .html request to the extensionless form, so these are the only
  URLs that should ever be listed here. If a page's canonical tag changes, update
  src/<page>.html FIRST, rebuild with `node build.js`, then regenerate this file.

  Priority framework:
    1.0  — Homepage
    0.9  — Core conversion pages (Contact, About, Second Opinion)
    0.85 — Highest-volume procedure & condition pages
    0.8  — All other procedure & condition pages
    0.75 — Procedures hub / listing page
    0.7  — Blog listing
    0.65 — Blog posts
    0.6  — Resource / supporting pages (Gallery, Media, International Patients, Areas We Serve)
    0.3  — Legal pages

  changefreq logic:
    weekly   — Homepage, Blog listing (new posts appear here first)
    monthly  — Procedure, condition, and blog post pages (content reviewed periodically)
    yearly   — About, legal pages (rarely change)

  Maintenance note: regenerate this file from the actual file list in src/
  (or root) whenever pages are added or removed — do not hand-maintain a list
  that can drift from what build.js actually outputs. Submit to Google Search
  Console after each regeneration so stale 404 entries are cleared.
