3. DEFINING THE CASEY MESSAGE
We started with an empty building and a white board filled
with arrows, intentions, expectations, and dreams. As we
embarked on our mission to create a memorable healthcare
brand, we sought to define and articulate a highly differentiated and unique service offering, built upon the beliefs of the
co-founders and the committed practitioners who make up
Casey Health and their relationship with patients.

EXECUTING THE CASEY MESSAGE
Historically, healthcare communications have been constructed
around the hardware of healthcare — practitioners’ credentials
and expertise, a facility, a new technically advanced apparatus,
or the very specific details of the service offering.
Seldom has the message been built that speaks to the relevant
and clear understanding of the benefits of that experience for
the patient. In this age of new patient empowerment, patients
are expecting that their voices be heard, and astute
healthcare practices are heeding that call to define their
value around the relevant benefits of the experience.
We call this “patient-centered communications.”

PATIENT RECRUITMENT
Healthy Living Partners guided Casey Health to utilize its best assets, leveraging a
highly different position in the local market with a integrated marketing campaign that included an “invitation to engage.”
I am more
than my aching back.
You are more than your symptoms, your diagnosis.
Partner with an integrative primary care
physician who sees you for who you really are —
not as just another aching back.
You know there’s a better way. So do we.

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
Building engaging, relevant experiences for all stakeholders creates
opportunity for expressing preference. When people are provided
with occasions to be involved with high-touch moments perceived
as personally relevant, commitment increases and word-of-mouth
referrals grow.

plan and implement a distinctive brand experience in the community.

8. NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR REVENUE CREATION
Keeping people healthy is a foundational principle for Casey Health.
Providing paid integrative therapies, educational workshops, and classes
in yoga and other activities that are open to the public, and thus outside
the medical services of the clinic, meant establishing a unique healthcare
model. A distinct Wellness Center was established for this purpose. The
challenge was to make clear the connection – and business potential --

between a retail wellness service open to the public and a primary care
clinic that serves patients.

Naturopathy uses the healing power of nature
itself to encourage your body’s inherent ability to
maintain and restore its own health. One key
element in this approach is nutrition — because
you really are what you eat.
awareness, interest, and ultimately service purchases.
Naturopathy is perfectly suited to address those issues
that don’t seem to come from an illness or disease.
Chronic digestive issues, such as acid reflux for
example, can easily be fixed by changes to the diet.

Naturopathy is heavily focused on getting down to
and understanding root causes in order to solve issues.
It is also focused on preventing issues from ever
occurring. For example, consistently eating healthy,
natural ingredients is probably the single most
important thing we can do to prevent illness and
disease from ever starting.
