#189 - Healthcare Marketing Built on Real Capacity
Episode 189
Tuesday, 13 January, 2026
Most healthcare marketing breaks down when patient demand outpaces real clinical capacity. On this episode of Ignite, Ashley Petrochenko, Cardinal's VP of Brand Marketing, sits down with Joseph McLean, Director of B2C Marketing at Synergy Health Partners, to explore why patient acquisition only works when it is built around provider availability, operational reality, and access. Joseph shares how aligning marketing spend with physician schedules, clinic capacity, and patient urgency creates more predictable growth and less wasted budget. The conversation unpacks how capacity-driven marketing changes everything from bidding strategy to channel mix, and why close collaboration with operations and scheduling teams is essential for scalable patient acquisition. You will learn: How to align patient acquisition with real provider availability Ways to reduce wasted ad spend when schedules are full Why capacity visibility should guide media strategy and budgets How reviews, access, and outcomes influence booking decisions If patient acquisition feels unpredictable or inefficient, this episode will change how growth is approached.
