Healthcare marketing budgets may be shrinking, but with that comes the opportunity to become more efficient and ROI-driven. Marketers can shift from “doing everything” to focusing on fewer channels and doing them exceptionally well

In this episode of the DrMarketingTips Show, Jennifer and Corey break down insights from the Healthcare Marketers Trend Report: “Into the Wind” and what they mean for independent practices navigating tighter budgets and shifting patient behavior.

Key takeaways from the report include:

  • How audience prioritization is changing between physicians, patients, and specialty referral groups
  • Why social media is now the fastest-growing channel as the the “new TV” for healthcare
  • Why omnichannel marketing is no longer optional, but the standard
  • How live events and human connection are making a comeback
  • Where AI and analytics fit in accelerating personalization and performance

Tune in for a practical, data-backed discussion on how to market smarter (not louder) in the 2026 healthcare landscape.
