PR For Health Care Professionals

The Benefits of Advertising Without the Cost, While Maintaining Your Dignity and Credibility

Stop Working So Hard And
Reclaim Your Life


Dear health care professional,



I have seen too many families torn apart, too many couples living separate, busy, lonely lives, and too many medical professionals with health issues of their own.

Why? Because they learned during their long years of professional preparation that the way to achieve goals is to work harder and longer.

No one taught them in medical school how to run a business and after years of practice, habit AND reward, it feels perfectly natural to continue working hard and long to establish a practice.

Then, when they have plenty of patients coming in the door, they wear themselves out trying to meet the always-urgent needs in a busy practice.

Sound like you? It doesn’t have to be this way. It’s great if you like working the long hours, but wouldn’t it be nice to have a choice?

  • To raise your fees so you can maintain your lifestyle while cutting back on your patient load?
  • To continue to work hard, but increase your income dramatically?
  • To select your patients, or even be able to work outside the insurance system?
  • …and if you’re just opening your practice, isn’t it great to know there’s a way to quickly build recognition in the community that won’t cost you thousands of dollars in advertising or require the expense of a marketing consultant?


So what’s this magic potion? It’s public relations. I know you may have only a fuzzy idea of what that is, so let me explain. Specifically, I want to talk about the kind of PR that establishes you as a respected expert in your community. But first, allow me to introduce myself as the author of PR for Health Care Professionals.

Twenty years in the Public Relations Trenches

My name is Chris Pillsbury and I have worked in the public relations profession for over 20 years as a writer, strategist, program implementer, manager, trainer and executive.

I know that one of the best ways to create the visibility and trust that will grow your practice and your revenue is the use of public relations strategies that establish you as an expert in your local community.

So what is public relations? It’s simply communication with your desired audiences through the media (and sometimes other perceived-as-objective third parties).


“You never know what doors may open...several years ago I started writing a column, The Holistic Pet, for our local paper.... Within a year it was picked up for North American distribution (to over 300 papers with over 15 million readers) by Knight Ridder.

    Six months later the CEO of a new pet business, Pet Togethers (www.pettogethers.net/healthypet,) saw an article I had written that was in his local paper in Arizona. He was looking to hire a veterinarian to help the company grow and serve as a spokesman and contacted me. Now I'm a doctor, writer, speaker, and consultant!” ~ Shawn Messonnier, DVM


Getting Famous In Your Community

It’s been said that we all get our 15 minutes of fame.

But what if you were one of the lucky few who gets much, much more?

Whether you are just starting your practice or are a seasoned professional, this letter will tell you how you can multiply your income by becoming known in your community as an expert in your field, in a way that retains your image as a professional.

Or if you prefer, it will show you how to reclaim your life by working less hours while charging higher fees.

This is not about advertising. Anyone who wants to spend money can advertise and say just about anything they want. The public knows this and so they give it very little credibility, if they pay attention at all.

Besides, you don’t want to come across looking like a money-focused sales pro; you simply want people to be aware of your practice and develop a preference for you as their provider that is based on respect for your knowledge and experience.

Public relations is the way. It is the best marketing activity for professionals because it:

  • Educates and thus by its very nature provides value to the community
  • Conveys professionalism
  • Establishes credibility and trust


And if you are conducting other types of marketing in your practice, public relations will make them more effective by supporting them with the credibility conveyed through media coverage.

Although there are many aspects to PR, the one most suitable to professionals is called expert positioning. This simply means that you want to be seen by the public as an expert resource, as THE person to go to for the best service available and for the most accurate and thorough information.

Most professionals see the value in that, but have no idea how to make it happen.

I can tell you it’s no accident, but some simple tools, many that your staff can help you implement, will enable you to reap the benefits of community name recognition, respect for you and your practice, patient loyalty and status as a true preferred provider—resulting in higher incomes and, if you desire, more leisure time.


PR for Health Care Professionals:

How to Raise Fees and Add Patients as a Community Expert

As the owner of a community public relations firm, I worked for professionals in many disciplines to help them gain local visibility and grow their practices.

As an executive in a national PR firm, I also had to decline PR services to professionals who were too small to afford our agency’s fees.

I wrote PR for Health Care Professionals, a manual for busy professionals in private practice, because I know that:

  • You already have most of what you need to implement a successful PR program.
  • PR activities, specifically expert positioning tactics, are perfectly suited to achieving the business and service goals of busy professionals.
  • With a little guidance, you can plan and execute a PR program on your own that will give you one of the most successful and respected practices in your community.

"PR for Health Care Professionals shows you how to build your practice and its value while enhancing your professional prestige. I wish I’d had this book 20 years ago. It’s well-written and worth many times the price.”
