Our Journey
Cork Media began in 2022 as a full-service social media agency, working with a variety of local businesses. Over time, we saw how effective social media could be for the medical industry and recognized the opportunity to help practices capitalize on it.
Since then, we’ve met with top leaders in healthcare, studied what works best for each medical niche, and refined our approach to match the unique needs of practices. We know exactly what drives growth in this industry and use proven strategies to help our clients expand their reach, attract new patients, and strengthen their reputation online.
