A healthcare PR firm specializing in B2B communications and marketing
We work with industry-leading health plans, health systems, mobile health providers, specialty pharmacies and health technology firms and act an extension of their marketing and communications teams. Our clients work with us because we are intimately familiar with each organization’s brand, goals, and positioning. Our leaders also have decades of experience in corporate marketing and healthcare-focused advertising agencies, and as a result, our understanding of this industry and key B2B influencers, buyers and decision-makers is unmatched.
About our woman-led, woman-owned agency
Activate Health began in 2010—our founder recognized the unique perspectives, expertise and insights that women bring to the art of marketing, public relations and communications. Nearly 15 years later, she, along with our current leaders, creative staff and account experts all have combined decades of healthcare industry experience. As a team, we leverage these strengths to provide top-notch marketing and public relations services and deliver exceptional results for our clients.
Today, Activate Health is led by CEO Sarah McLeod, who continues to bring diversity and equity to professional sectors including our healthcare PR firm.

Leadership and industry insights from our CEO
As a public relations and marketing thought leader, Sarah was recently interviewed about her background and expertise.
With 20 years of strategic healthcare marketing, communications and public relations experience, previously having served at Fortune 500 companies, Sarah shared her vision for Activate Health with Bold Journey.
“Forming an agency that specialized in healthcare made perfect sense. The landscape is ever evolving, and trends and forces shift regularly. It’s a full-time job to keep up with the intricacy and the industry effects on different healthcare entities… And we built a team of people who understood just that, from our account teams to our creative folks.”
Sarah also told Medium about the importance of becoming an industry thought leader regarding herself and the clients that Activate Health supports.
“People want to engage with other individuals or companies that they feel are knowledgeable and in tune with their challenges and needs. A reliable, credible thought leader can champion a company’s mission and value proposition for employees, internal stakeholders and partners, as well as customers or prospects.”
Sarah emphasized cultivating thought leadership in the B2B space specifically, “…because at the end of the day, a person or group of people — not a company — will make a purchasing decision.” This philosophy is just one reason healthcare companies turn to Activate Health because we specialize in building thought leaders.
