Healthcare-only. Vertical-deep.

Generic healthcare marketing fails predictably.

Healthcare marketing programmes that apply horizontal playbooks across specialties consistently underperform programmes tuned to specialty-specific economics. The gap shows up first in cost-per-acquisition (generalists pay 1.4-1.8× more per patient because they bid wrong keywords and use creative that doesn't speak the specialty's trust signals). Then in compliance incidents (ASCI takedowns, ad disapprovals). Then in platform reactions (Google's helpful content updates penalise content that doesn't show genuine specialty depth).

What specialty depth means in practice

Specialty depth means: working knowledge of the patient consideration cycle for that specialty (hours for emergency vs months for IVF), the trust signals that decide booking (insurance acceptance for primary care vs surgeon credentials for cardiac), the channels that compound (visual social for aesthetic vs symptom-stage SEO for mental health), the compliance constraints that apply (ASCI for cosmetic, HIPAA for mental health, PCPNDT for fertility), and the operational SLAs that determine ROI (sub-3-min response for emergency vs sub-24-hour for surgical).

We've worked across the six industries above (and 113 individual specialty hubs) long enough to have built specific infrastructure for each — keyword libraries, content templates, GBP optimisation patterns, paid bidding priors, compliance pre-clearance workflows. New entrants can't replicate this depth quickly; specialist agencies are pulling away from generalists on every key metric across the 2024-2026 healthcare marketing landscape.

How to read these industry hubs

Each of the six main industry hubs (hospitals, IVF + fertility, mental health, dental, aesthetic + dermatology, medical tourism) covers what we ship for that vertical, what good looks like at 12-18 months, what compliance constraints apply, and the case files we've indexed. The 113 specialty hubs (cardiology, dermatology, oncology, family medicine, orthopedics, etc.) drill down further with specialty-specific patient journey, channel mix, KPIs, and FAQs.

Use the hubs as research before engaging — they tell you whether our methodology aligns with your specialty's economics. The 90-day diagnostic audit (free for qualified practices) translates that methodology into a custom plan for your specific case mix, geographic market, and operational state.

If your specialty isn't one of the six

We work across 113 medical specialties (each with a dedicated hub). If your specialty isn't in the six main industries, browse the specialty index — there's likely a hub already built for your category. If we haven't shipped 50+ engagements in your specialty yet, we'll tell you on the call so you can make an informed decision about specialty depth versus other agency criteria.
