Social Media Platforms for Healthcare

Each platform offers unique opportunities for patient engagement. We build tailored strategies across the channels that matter most to your clinic, combining organic content with paid social campaigns for maximum reach.

Instagram

Visual storytelling that showcases your clinic at its best. We create engaging content including compliant before-and-after imagery, clinic life behind the scenes, patient stories with proper consent, and treatment showcases that build credibility and trust with prospective patients.

Facebook

Community building and patient education at scale. We leverage Facebook for local targeting, patient acquisition through Meta Ads, sharing health education content, and fostering a community around your practice. Ideal for reaching established demographics who actively research healthcare options locally.

LinkedIn

Professional credibility and B2B engagement for healthcare. We position your clinicians as thought leaders, build connections with healthcare professionals, support clinic recruitment efforts, and create content that resonates with HCPs, referral partners, and corporate wellness decision-makers.

TikTok

Short-form health education reaching younger demographics. We navigate the compliance considerations for medical content on TikTok while creating engaging, shareable videos that demystify treatments and position your clinicians as approachable experts. Growing rapidly among patients aged 18 to 35.

Google Business Profile

Your most important local visibility asset. We manage Google Business posts, share clinic updates, respond to reviews, and optimise your profile to strengthen local SEO signals. Patients searching for clinics near them see your profile first, making it a critical touchpoint.

Compliance

Compliant Healthcare Social Media Content

Most social media agencies do not understand the regulatory landscape of medical advertising. That is what sets us apart. Every piece of content we create is reviewed against current healthcare advertising regulations before it goes live.

We work within GMC social media advertising guidelines, ASA rules governing healthcare claims, and the specific regulations around before-and-after photography. Patient consent for testimonials and case studies is handled meticulously, and all medical claims are substantiated and compliant.

From restricted treatments in the aesthetics sector to sensitive ophthalmology procedures, we understand the nuances of what can and cannot be said on social media. Our team produces compliant medical content that engages without overstepping regulatory boundaries.

  • GMC advertising guidelines for social media content
  • ASA compliance for healthcare claims and promotions
  • Before-and-after photo regulations and best practice
  • Patient consent frameworks for testimonials and imagery
  • Medical claims restrictions across all platforms

Paid Social

Paid Social Media for Patient Acquisition

Organic reach alone is no longer enough. Our paid social campaigns on Meta and LinkedIn put your clinic in front of the right patients at the right time, driving measurable enquiries and appointment bookings.

We use precise targeting by location, age, interests, and behaviour to reach prospective patients in your catchment area. Lookalike audiences built from your existing patient base help us find people most likely to convert, while retargeting campaigns re-engage visitors who have already explored your website.

For clinics looking to attract referrals or build professional networks, LinkedIn campaigns target HCPs and decision-makers in relevant specialties. Every paid campaign works alongside your Google Ads campaigns and is optimised for conversions through dedicated landing page optimisation.

  • Meta Ads targeting by location, demographics, and interests
  • Lookalike audiences modelled on existing patients
  • Retargeting campaigns for website visitors
  • LinkedIn Ads for HCP engagement and referrals

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Which social media platform is best for my clinic?

It depends on your specialty, target demographic, and goals. Instagram works exceptionally well for visual specialties like aesthetics and dental, while LinkedIn is stronger for B2B referral building. Facebook remains valuable for local patient acquisition, particularly for older demographics. We audit your current position and recommend the platforms that will deliver the strongest return for your specific practice.

Can we post before and after photos?

Yes, but with strict compliance requirements. ASA and GMC guidelines govern how before-and-after imagery can be used in healthcare advertising. Photos must not be misleading, patient consent must be documented, and certain restrictions apply depending on the treatment type. We ensure every image meets regulatory standards before publication, protecting your clinic from compliance issues.

How much should we spend on paid social?

Budgets vary based on your location, competition, and patient acquisition goals. We typically recommend starting with a test budget to establish baseline performance, then scaling spend once we identify the audiences and creatives that deliver the best cost per enquiry. We provide transparent reporting on every pound spent so you can see the return clearly.

Do you manage our accounts or just advise?

We offer fully managed social media services. That means we handle content creation, scheduling, publishing, community management, and reporting. You approve content before it goes live, but we do the heavy lifting. If you prefer a consultancy model where we train your in-house team, we offer that too.
