Podcasts about medical marketing

ASCO is the preeminent cancer conference, bringing every oncology stakeholder to Chicago for a weekend of breakthrough presentations, pertinent health discussions and a bevy of brand activations. Additionally, MM+M will be on the ground there, represented by pharma editor Lecia Bushak. Ahead of ASCO, Lecia chatted with Illinois CancerCare's Kimberly Ku, MD. A triple board-certified physician, Ku recently partnered with Cancer Therapy Advisor, a fellow Haymarket Media brand, to distribute her podcast, Val-You Based Care.  Now, she's joining our podcast for a preview of ASCO as well as to offer insights on how pharma brands can better message to HCPs and patients about cancer care. After that, I'm shipping up to Boston for the Veeva Commercial Summit, so you'll hear from the rest of the team during Trends, where they'll discuss some of the most interesting trends they've observed through their reporting for Agency 100.   Check us out at: mmm-online.com Follow us: YouTube: @MMM-onlineTikTok: @MMMnewsInstagram: @MMMnewsonlineTwitter/X: @MMMnewsLinkedIn: MM+M To read more of the most timely, balanced and original reporting in medical marketing, subscribe here.Music: “Deep Reflection” by DP and Triple Scoop Music.

Welcome to the MM+M Podcast — a RevHealth conversation where the gloves are off and the usual agency playbook is up for debate. This isn't about polished answers or safe perspectives. It's about what's actually working in health, and what's not. The uncomfortable truths about agency models, the real impact of AI, why some partnerships fail, and what it truly takes to drive behavior change in a system that resists it. At RevHealth, we believe culture, conviction, and clarity aren't just internal values; they fuel better outcomes for clients and patients. So, this is where we put that thinking to the test. Openly. Honestly. And without filtering out the hard parts.  Because if we're serious about moving health forward, we have to be willing to challenge the way it's always been done.

Few people outside of the industry know about all of the major players – be they drugmakers, medical marketing agencies, health media companies or patient advocates – let alone the intricate dynamics between them. Unless you're raised in the industry, medical marketing doesn't come across your radar on a daily basis. Luckily, this week's guest is a leader who was born and raised in the industry and plays an integral role in the story of MM+M.Anne Gideon, the executive director of the Medical Advertising Hall of Fame, joins the show for a conversation with editor-in-chief Jameson Fleming to discuss her family's decadeslong legacy in medical marketing and how her late father, David, elevated the publication's profile in the 1980s and 90s. She also reflects on how his contributions will be further recognized at the MM+M Awards in October when we hand out the David Gideon Leadership Award. Then, during our Trends segment, we're talking about the 2026 Edelman Trust Barometer and why 70% of respondents indicated they hold at least one “divisive” health belief.

Consumers and patients expect more from their healthcare interactions, therefore reaching the right audience is critically important. But to drive real world outcomes, pharma marketers must also shift focus toward meaningful patient-first engagement. AI can help bridge this gap, turning messy, scattered data into actionable insights that can help marketers reach the right audience with the right message at the exact moment it matters most.

"Point-of-care” channels are quickly becoming a must-have in the pharma media mix, but new vendors and bold claims are making it harder for marketers to trust their media investments will deliver reach, impact and brand conversion. This podcast breaks down what point of care should actually look like, why getting it right makes such a big difference and how it can drive better outcomes for both marketers and physicians. We also touch on how EHR-based approaches are evolving (far beyond what people think) and share some practical tips to help marketers cut through the noise and invest more confidently.

Demand today is shaped long before any clinical interaction, with influencers across both HCP and consumer ecosystems playing a central role in driving awareness, trust and action. Cash pay care is leading a model where providers, patients and brands operate as interconnected sources of influence. This podcast explores how to navigate and activate influence holistically, and what it takes to compete in an environment where influence is no longer linear or controlled.

Pharma brands invest millions to bring specialty medications to market — and then watch patients abandon therapy before it begins. The culprit is friction within the prescribing workflow: prior authorization requirements that providers don't anticipate, scripts sent to a pharmacy that can't fill them and administrative complexity that makes physicians hesitant to prescribe in the first place. DrFirst chief medical officer Dr. Colin Banas and EVP, corporate strategy Drew Hunsinger join The MM+M Podcast to discuss what happens between the moment a physician decides to prescribe a specialty medication and the moment a patient starts therapy, and what that means for your brand performance. They'll explore how embedding intelligent decision support directly into the prescribing workflow helps providers write clean prescriptions that arrive at the pharmacy ready to fill, and why solving this upstream problem is the next frontier for pharma access strategy.

Almost one year ago, we had Publicis Health Media CEO Andrea Palmer on the podcast to preview the agency's two-day HealthFront conference. We then spent the Trends segment analyzing the impact of HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on pharma manufacturers and vaccine policy. This week, Andrea returns to the show to preview the agency's two-day HealthFront conference. Then, we will spend the Trends segment discussing the upcoming debut of The Secretary Kennedy Podcast. No, this isn't a rerun. Sometimes things just never change in healthcare. Just this week, PHM also unveiled a new branding identity to underscore its “purpose-built for today's modern healthcare experience.” In the crowded, endlessly competitive medical marketing landscape, PHM is a dynamic force and its flagship thought leadership summit offers as much as proof. It's great to have Andrea join us this week to preview PHM's 2026 Agency 100 profile, the upcoming HealthFront and delve into four key aspects of her annual Disruptors list.

Clinical evidence shows what a therapy can do; cognitive efficacy ensures people understand it, choose it and follow through in the moments that matter.

Assembled Intelligence and InVibe surveyed 150 U.S.-based physicians across 12 specialties to understand how healthcare professionals find, evaluate and act on clinical information in an increasingly fragmented digital environment. The research reveals a four-stage digital journey, a conditional and growing role for AI tools and a meaningful generational divide in how physicians approach new technology. In this conversation, we sit down with Assembled Intelligence's Chuck Hemann and InVibe's Christopher Farina to discuss what the data means for pharma marketers and communicators trying to reach HCPs on their terms.

Over the past week, everyone has had launches on the brain – thanks largely to the Artemis II rocket and its ongoing lunar flyby mission. However, there are a couple of health-related launches that are the focus of this week's episode. First up is the launch of HayloARC, a health-focused demand-side platform – better known as a DSP. HayloARC is available for use by advertisers and medical marketing agencies seeking to better interface with HCPs and patients. To accomplish this, HayloARC utilizes first-party HCP data derived from 30-plus medical publications owned by Haymarket Media, the parent company of MM+M. For the feature conversation, editor-at-large Steve Madden sits down with Louis Naimoli, VP of programmatic business development and strategy at Haymarket, about what HayloARC is, how it's differentiated from other DSPs and what it offers programmatic buyers in medical marketing. Then, during our Trends segment, we're talking about how the fight for GLP-1 supremacy between Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly has shifted to the oral obesity pill battlefield. We discuss Novo rolling out a multimonth subscription program for Wegovy and the FDA's approval of Lilly's daily oral weight loss drug Foundayo. Music: “Deep Reflection” by DP and Triple Scoop Music.

The world of pharma marketing continues to evolve with multiple ongoing challenges: creating more results with less resources, navigating political and economic uncertainties, overcoming a less than favorable industry public perception and adapting to the ever-present impact of AI. What remains in place throughout all of these variables is the client and AOR relationship. In this podcast we discuss multiple ways in which this relationship can evolve to help foster stronger, truer strategic partnership resulting in greater wins and achievement for both sides.

Those takeouts, including insights from Amgen, Marina Maher Communications and Compass Pathways, will be featured in next week's podcast.

In this episode of our ongoing series celebrating MM+M's 60th Anniversary, editor-at-large Steve Madden sits down with David Paragamian, CEO of Health Monitor Network, to explore the principles that drive successful leadership in the pharmaceutical and marketing industries. Paragamian shares insights from his professional journey to explain why intentionality is the secret to effective recruitment and team building. They discuss how small projects can offer the most significant leadership breakthroughs, the non-negotiable value of writing and communication in business, why true resilience is forged through personal challenges rather than just corporate ones and the formative experience of working for P&G right out of college. And in this week's Trends segment, Madden and MM+M editor-in-chief Jameson Fleming dive into the "therapeutic" power of writing, reflect on Madden's book Embrace the Suck and discuss the modern challenge of balancing a high-stakes career with family life and personal passions like CrossFit.

When MM+M set out to hire a new reporter, there were a few characteristics that we were looking for. We wanted a reporter who was able to file clean copy on tight deadlines while also possessing the soft skills to effectively network and participate in our live events.  Most of the reporters we interviewed fit the bill, so one of the differentiators would ultimately come down to experience with healthcare reporting and covering our little corner of the world. That's where Bella Czajkowski stood out. Bella joined MM+M with great familiarity of the healthcare industry, both from her time most recently spent as the newsletter editor for Essen Health Care, as well as working at Kaiser Health News' Arm and a Leg podcast and the Global Health Reporting Center. Yet it was her work as the national correspondent for The 340B Report – covering an arcane, opaque federal health program – that stood out most. That's why we're spending this week's episode formally welcoming her on to the podcast, unpacking what she's learned over the first month on the job and what she hopes to achieve as part of the MM+M team going forward. And for our Trends segment, we're talking about the coming end of Vinay Prasad's chaotic tenure at the FDA.

Regulations governing AI are more than likely on their way – but a lot of unknowns remain. Some might say too many unknowns remain, which isn't great for business. While clear, comprehensive regulations for AI are widely expected – and requested – by nearly every sector of the economy, there's plenty we don't know.  That said, business leaders can not and will not operate in the dark.  Executives in our orbit, whether leading drug manufacturers, major medical marketing agencies or health media companies, require at least a sense of what's on the horizon. This week, pharma editor Lecia Bushak speaks with Darshan Kulkarni, a pharma regulatory consultant and founding partner at his namesake law firm. Their conversation explores the potential of new laws and regulations around AI use cases in medical marketing, such as digital avatars. And for our Trends segment, we're talking about Bayer's lawsuit against Johnson & Johnson for its marketing practices around a prostate cancer drug.

Since podcasting came into existence in the mid-2000s, the space has become increasingly popular, remarkably lucrative and unquestionably saturated. Still, despite the countless millions of podcasts out there, countless millions of people tune in every hour of every day for conversations about every topic – including healthcare.  Joining a world occupied by This Past Weekend, Good Hang and The MM+M Podcast is The Persistence Lab. Launched by AbbVie's corporate affairs team, The Persistence Lab is the pharma giant's 10-episode project to highlight the work undertaken by its researchers, the clinical expertise of HCPs as well as the lived experiences of patients.  The first episode of The Persistence Lab was released late last week and is available wherever you listen to your podcasts.Molly James-Lundak, VP of R&D communications at AbbVie, joined me for a slightly meta conversation about joining the podcast sphere, how the drugmaker brought the idea to life and why it was important to engage with audio content creation.   And for our Trends segment, we're talking about AI in healthcare: Including the tools that actually work, the regulations on the way and the concerns that never go away.  Music: “Deep Reflection” by DP and Triple Scoop Music.   Check us out at: mmm-online.com Follow us: YouTube: @MMM-onlineTikTok: @MMMnewsInstagram: @MMMnewsonlineTwitter/X: @MMMnewsLinkedIn: MM+M To read more of the most timely, balanced and original reporting in medical marketing, subscribe here.Music: “Deep Reflection” by DP and Triple Scoop Music.

Revitalizing Private Practice: Strategic Medical Marketing with Laura WoodardIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge speaks with Laura Woodard, the Founder of Grass Roots Medical Marketing, about the intensifying pressures facing independent physicians today. With corporate consolidation and administrative burdens causing an exodus of private practitioners, Laura shares her thirty years of expertise to help doctors reclaim their local authority and compete effectively with hospital-owned entities. This conversation provides a high-level roadmap for healthcare providers to bridge the gap between their clinical excellence and their digital presence, ensuring they can reach the patients who need their specialized care most.The Foundational Pillars of Patient Acquisition and RetentionSuccess in the modern medical landscape requires moving beyond traditional word-of-mouth and establishing a digital infrastructure that functions as a 24/7 patient advocate. Laura explains that a private practice's digital "front door" consists of three non-negotiable elements: a high-performing, mobile-optimized website, fully claimed and consistent online profiles, and a proactive strategy for review management. Because a staggering percentage of patients consult reviews and search results before booking, an outdated website or an incomplete Google Business Profile isn't just a minor oversight—it is a direct barrier to growth. By optimizing these touchpoints, doctors can signal credibility and accessibility, turning passive searchers into loyal patients before they even step into the office.Beyond the digital interface, the "second front door" of any practice is the front desk staff, whose interactions often dictate the tone of the entire patient experience. Laura emphasizes that marketing doesn't end when a lead is generated; it continues through every phone call and check-in procedure. High-performing practices invest in customer service training for their administrative teams, ensuring that empathy and efficiency are prioritized as much as clinical outcomes. This holistic approach ensures that the promises made by the practice's marketing are consistently fulfilled by the staff, protecting the provider's reputation and fostering a culture that naturally generates positive online feedback.For busy practitioners who are already balancing patient care with administrative duties, the transition to strategic marketing can feel overwhelming without a systematic framework. Laura introduces the "GRASS Formula"—Gauge, Recognize, Accelerate, Support, and Success—as a data-driven method to diagnose marketing weaknesses and implement sustainable improvements. By auditing website speed, heat-mapping user behavior, and automating review requests, doctors can move from a reactive "do-it-yourself" struggle to a proactive, "done-for-you" growth model. This shift allows physicians to focus on their primary mission of healing while a team of specialists manages the complexities of SEO, social media, and reputation management.About Laura Woodard:Laura Woodard is the Founder of Grass Roots Medical Marketing and a seasoned marketing strategist with over three decades of experience. Driven by her personal journey as a caregiver and her deep respect for the physician-patient relationship, she specializes in helping private practice doctors survive and thrive in an increasingly corporate healthcare environment.About Grass Roots Medical Marketing: Grass Roots Medical Marketing is a full-service marketing agency dedicated exclusively to supporting private practice physicians and small medical groups. The agency provides comprehensive, hands-on services—including SEO, web development, and reputation management—designed to increase patient volume

The first episode of the MM+M Podcast in 2026 centers on the bright lights of Las Vegas.Like clockwork, early January in Vegas is dominated by the Consumer Electronics Showcase – which is routinely ranked as the most-attended trade show in the U.S.  While CES is, in accordance with its name, more consumer-focused in nature, the four-day bonanza always offers a healthcare hook.Alison Woo, a former CNN journalist and comms lead for pharma giants like GSK and Novartis, has been stationed in Vegas since media availability began on Sunday.You may remember Alison from the last time she was on the podcast, which was one year ago when she covered CES 2025 for us. This week, Alison and managing editor Jack O'Brien chat about all things CES: the omnipresence of AI, innovation that will actually make a difference in healthcare as well as only the most pertinent medical marketing takeaways for you the listener.And for our Trends segment, we're discussing some of our medical marketing industry resolutions for 2026 and say goodbye to reporter Heerea Rikhraj.Music: “Deep Reflection” by DP and Triple Scoop Music.

2025 – what a year that was for medical marketing.So many events and developments contributed to headlines in not only MM+M but mainstream outlets as well.Chief among them was the confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as HHS Secretary, which signaled the direction that the second Trump administration would take on health policy.Not to be outdone, AI had a sizable impact, too. The momentum behind AI affected how millions consume information, do their jobs and even the ads they see on a daily basis.  Additionally, the closing of Omnicom's takeover of IPG sent another shockwave through adland. Though medical marketing shops may be more insulated than consumer agencies, they were not spared.This week, I'm joined by editor-in-chief Jameson Fleming, editor-at-large Steve Madden, pharma editor Lecia Bushak and reporter Heerea Rikhraj so the MM+M editorial team can say ‘goodbye' to 2025 and ‘hello' to 2026 in our final episode of the year.And once again, in lieu of the Trends segment, we bring you an interview from our recent AI Deciphered conference, this time with health futurist John Duffield.

It's a seismic change for several industries. Omnicom Group closed its $9 billion acquisition of Interpublic Group last Wednesday. In the days since, the deal has resulted in many job reductions as Omnicom tries to reach promised cost savings. For the PR sector, the deal means former Interpublic agencies Golin and The Weber Shandwick Collective are joining Omnicom PR, which includes FleishmanHillard, Ketchum, Porter Novelli and other firms under the leadership of CEO Chris Foster. Joining this week's podcast are Campaign's Luz Corona and MM+M's Jameson Fleming, who explain what the holding company mega-deal means for the creative and medical marketing sectors, respectively. Plus, some of the biggest marketing and communications news of the week, such as WPP delaying employee pay reviews until next spring and PRWeek's Best Places to Work 2025.

Justin Thomas-Copeland is the CEO of the 4As, but key aspects of his career arc are defined by leadership assignments in the world of healthcare.Before he ascended to the top spot at the ad industry's leading trade association, Justin lived the best of both worlds in healthcare: working brandside and at an agency supporting pharma clients.In the early 2010s, he served as chief digital officer, Europe for Novartis – developing the Swiss drugmaker's first digital strategy. From there, he rejoined the agency world as the managing director and global client lead for Team Novartis at Wunderman EMEA.At the end of the decade, he served as global CEO of OPMG Health at Omnicom Precision Marketing Group.MM+M editor-in-chief Jameson Fleming brings us an extended conversation with Justin about what his early experience as a health leader taught him about advertising and why thinks digital marketing can reimagine health brands.And for our Trends segment, we're talking about Secretary Kennedy's admission that he personally directed the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to change its guidance on the link between vaccines and autism.  Check us out at: mmm-online.com Follow us: YouTube: @MMM-onlineTikTok: @MMMnewsInstagram: @MMMnewsonlineTwitter/X: @MMMnewsLinkedIn: MM+M To read more of the most timely, balanced and original reporting in medical marketing, subscribe here.Music: “Deep Reflection” by DP and Triple Scoop Music.

Prepare to have your understanding of CFCs completely transformed. In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Thomas Lodi challenges the conventional medical model by explaining why cancer should actually be called "chronically fermenting cells" (CFCs) - a term that accurately describes what's happening in the body rather than using misleading astrological terminology.Dr. Lodi takes us deep into the cellular biology of cancer, revealing how cells switch to fermentation when they lose approximately 50-60% of their mitochondrial function due to cumulative toxic exposure. This adaptive response isn't something to attack but to understand as the body's intelligent survival mechanism. The conventional approach of cutting, burning, and poisoning completely misses the underlying cause and often makes matters worse.With passionate clarity, he explains why removing tumors without addressing the toxicity that caused them is like cutting apples off a poisoned tree and expecting healthy fruit next season. Drawing from research published in Seminars in Cancer Biology, he demonstrates how conventional treatments can paradoxically promote tumor relapse and metastasis by enhancing the survival of cancer stem cells.The path to true healing begins with eliminating toxins through biological dentistry, fresh juice cleanses, and restoring balance to all body systems. Dr. Lodi shares practical guidance on optimizing vitamin levels, balancing thyroid function through proper iodine intake, and supporting the immune system naturally. This regenerative approach creates an internal environment where chronically fermenting cells can either return to normal function or be properly eliminated.Ready to reclaim your power in the healing journey?

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is, by all accounts, a painful disease.An estimated 3 million Americans live with HS, which is most commonly identified by flare ups as well as painful and unflattering lumps under the skin.Over the past few years, drugmakers have launched campaigns and marketing efforts to bring greater attention and understanding to the disease.Recently, Incyte launched HS Truths – an educational campaign to shine a spotlight on the physical symptoms of the disease as well as the associated mental health challenges.Patient-led, HS Truths provides insights into how frustrating it can be to live with the disease before receiving a proper medical diagnosis – which occurs after an average of seven to 10 years.This week, Managing Editor Jack O'Brien is joined by Stephenie Atkins, senior director, brand lead product strategy and marketing at Incyte, to discuss HS Truths and how it serves to elevate the profile of HS as a disease state.And for our Trends segment, we're talking about all things related to the continued splintering of vaccine policy uniformity in America under Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s leadership at HHS.Music: “Deep Reflection” by DP and Triple Scoop Music. Step into the future of health media at the MM+M Media Summit on October 30th, 2025 live in NYC!
