Washington Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine looks to leverage physician expertise and authority in marketing campaign

Baltimore, MD, August 22, 2015—Cory Farrugia, president of Channel Communications, announced today that Washington Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine (WOSM) has chosen the firm to develop a broad-based marketing communications campaign to attract new patients and build greater visibility of the practice’s experience and thought leadership.

“We’re excited about the opportunity to work with a medical practice that has the stature of WOSM,” Farrugia said. “Many of its physicians have served as team physicians for professional sports teams and national sports organizations and offer a level of expertise and care that is second to none.”

David Franek, chief creative officer, said, “We’re looking forward to applying our knowledge and experience in healthcare to help WOSM elevate its market visibility to patients who need the best orthopedic care available.

The Channel team will create a range of printed and online marketing assets for WOSM that will include a pay-per-click campaign, weekly blog content, a series of videos, a take-one brochure for WOSM practice locations, an e-newsletter template with content support, a direct mail campaign to build physician referrals, giveaway t-shirts, and social media support for published content. The overall campaign is scheduled to be implemented over a five-month period.
