Dan Florey
Chief of Staff, Beacon Biosignals
As a Series A-funded startup operating in the healthcare industry with all of its complexities, we knew we needed an agency that understood us and our goals, our mission, and also the market itself. Amendola quickly got up to speed and seamlessly integrated into our workflow. They keep us on track and were able to gain immediate placements for us that increased inbound inquiries and helped establish the brand position we are building toward. Kudos!

Justin Norden MD, MBA, MPhil
Partner, GSR Ventures
We have found a terrific strategic communications partner in Amendola. They hit the ground running–within the first week we had an interview and were quoted in the Wall Street Journal. Since then, Amendola has secured us extensive coverage in healthcare trades and national media outlets as well as podcast interviews in front of our target audiences. They have also helped us place timely thought leadership articles in high-profile outlets such as STAT and TechCrunch. Amendola is responsive, well connected, and easy to work with. We have a lot more awareness due to our work together.

Brett Furst
President, HHS Tech
When I was hired as president of HHS Tech, my first call was to Amendola. Based on my success working with Amendola while at four previous companies, I knew they could help me make an immediate impact. Their knowledge of the industry is deep, and they immediately grasped our company’s vision, mission and value proposition. Their strategic guidance and fast execution have achieved tremendous results for us.

David Manin
Senior Director of Marketing, FDB (First Databank, Inc.)
I have worked with several PR firms over my many years in healthcare and healthcare IT marketing and communications. Amendola Communications has been, by far, the most successful endeavor. They are extremely knowledgeable about the marketplace, have demonstrated an outstanding ability to understand our unique and complex solutions and communicate their benefits to the media and other audiences; take initiative; are responsive to our needs and challenges; and wonderful to work with. Tara Stultz, our primary point person, is an ALL-STAR communications professional and we are fortunate to have her as a member of our team.

Paul Horstmeier
Senior Vice President, Health Catalyst
We’ve developed an award-winning content creation mechanism and we turned to Amendola to do that because they know healthcare so well…they’re not just a PR agency. They really are a content expertise agency.

Rahul Sharma
President and CEO, HSBlox
Amendola has been HSBlox’s public relations partner for many years and has been instrumental in executing our thought leadership program on effective and scalable Value-Based Care (VBC). The staff at Amendola has worked with us to first understand the value prop of our transformational technology and to execute the program with outreach to targeted media and analysts. The campaign garnered the prestigious Hermes Creative Award and Bulldog PR Award. They have an amazing team of knowledgeable, courteous professionals, with great communication skills. We highly recommend Amendola to companies seeking a public relations and marketing agency in the healthcare industry.

Matthew Sappern
CEO, PeriGen
Jodi and the team at Amendola have for years delivered strategic results for PeriGen as the company gained footing, raised capital and was acquired. That engagement continues now with everything from media relations, strategic market assessments and always providing an effective and well-informed sounding board. The firm is committed to its clients and creative in how it works, finding a way to be effective within the confines of our budget, even in the early and most lean years.

Tanya Travers
Vice President of Marketing, Gray Matter Analytics
Prior to working with Amendola Communications, we didn’t really have any media footprint. That all changed when we signed on with them – not only did our Amendola team significantly increase our media footprint across the right outlets, but they also advanced our thought leadership in the payor and provider markets.

James Foster
Vice President of Marketing, Vivify
Vivify did not have a marketing department until I came onboard so I started from scratch to build the company’s brand name in the market. We went from near-zero visibility to being the market leader, which played a strong part in Vivify’s acquisition by Optum. Amendola played a huge role in accomplishing our brand awareness goals with the depth and scope of media opportunities presented.

Gregg Churc
President, 4Medica
Amendola has been a valued strategic partner to 4medica over the years. So much so that we are a return client and have recently expanded our partnership with them based on the significant results and quality work they have provided us. They have a solid understanding of our business, and their understanding of the industry is second to none. They have exceptional relationships with industry media and can think about our work in both creative and strategic ways that produce needle-moving results. We don’t just consider Amendola our agency partner, but truly an extension of our leadership team.

Lindsey Karberg
VP of Marketing, Verana Health
Establishing thought leadership amid a cluttered digital health landscape can be difficult. Amendola has the subject matter expertise and healthcare technology connections to help cut through the noise.

Lori Chilar
Vice President of Marketing, ABOUT
We have a true strategic partner in Amendola. They have a solid understanding of our business and have proven themselves to be an integral, cohesive extension of our marketing team. They are great listeners and idea agents, but also very effective at getting things done.

Dan Ferris
Chief Marketing Officer, Iris Telehealth
We love our partnership with Amendola. They make us better every day with their thought partnership, strategy, and reliable execution. We have big aspirations and are glad they are on our team!

Dave Lareau
CEO, Medicomp Systems
We love our A-Team! We think of them as family. Their writing is perfection – I often don’t change a thing. For the last several years they have gotten us great exposure during both good years and challenging ones, but we know that it will lead to great things for us. I couldn’t be happier.

Doug Hart
Vice President of Business Development, Alveo Technologies and 5-time repeat client
The Amendola team lives and breathes healthcare. They understand what’s happening across the healthcare landscape, which allows them to bring a clear strategic vision to their work with clients. Amendola helps us strategically by providing us with ongoing opportunities, whether it’s a bylined article, a podcast appearance, or a conference speaking session. They tailor their PR and marketing outreach to the client’s specific needs. They’re not just checking off boxes. Amendola is proactive. I’ve worked with PR agencies in the past that would get on a call with you and say, ‘OK, what do you want to do this week?’ With Amendola, it’s more like, ‘Here’s what we’re planning. We’re doing this first, and then that. And then we have this other thing scheduled.’ It’s a dynamic mindset that makes a huge difference for clients.

Mary Hardy
CEO, Impathiq, 4-time repeat client
At every firm I’ve worked with, Amendola has become part of our sales and marketing team. With their knowledge base and experience, it’s always been a solid and collaborative relationship where we can run ideas by them, and they consistently deliver great feedback and direction. Amendola knows the market, so they know the competitors and understand their messaging. Their experience and knowledge help us develop a truly compelling message and effective strategy faster than what would have been possible internally.

Sherry McAllister M.S (Ed)., D.C., CCSP
President, Foundation for Chiropractic Progress
Working with Amendola for four consecutive years has been an outstanding experience! Knowledge, creativity and deep industry awareness has led our nonprofit to maximize our resources, receive multiple awards and double our membership!

Bret Larsen
CEO and Co-Founder, eVisit
As a growth-stage company looking to expand our market awareness, Amendola put a strategy in place to get eVisit on the media’s radar as a virtual/hybrid care thought leader. They created a ‘PRengine’ of opportunities and now our company leaders, partners, customers, and prospects say they see us everywhere. Amendola made me a believer in the power of PR and the earned media coverage it garners.

Kathy English
Chief Marketing Officer, Vocera
Run to Amendola! They’re the best I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot of (agencies) working and living in San Jose, right in the middle of the Silicon Valley.

Michele Norton
MS RN, Healthcare Executive and 4-Time Repeat Client
Amendola has always been a critical part of our teams. I know I couldn’t have done it without you at SCIO, HealthMyne and Zynx. Look forward to many more opportunities to partner and collaborate!

Greg Miller
Chief Growth Officer, Lumeon and 5-time repeat client
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Amendola Communication at five separate companies and to me they’re a lifelong business partner…They really became part of our team. Amendola always delivers. The team is killer, easy to work with, and fun, too. I’m always pleasantly amazed at whom Jodi and her team get us in front of, whether it’s an analyst, or an article placement, or on a podcast series. Amendola offers way more than just PR. They have deep relationships with industry analysts and journalists, but they also create great articles, content and white papers that get attention.
Darin Brannan
President, ClearDATA
ClearDATA would not be where we are today without the great PR and thought leadership foundation Amendola provided.
