Welcome to Virgo Health

VirgoHealth__strapline colourWe are a leading, global healthcare communications agency.

Healthcare is an industry with people at its heart. And everything we do through communication is about helping people make better decisions about health and wellbeing. That’s why “Being Human” is so important.

Being Human means communicating in a personalised and authentic way. It means recognising what people really think, believe and do. It means understanding our clients and audiences as individuals. It means working together with conviction, integrity and passion to do an outstanding job that achieves exceptional results.

All our work is about being real, being relevant and above all… Being Human.

We’re proud to have been named 2015 EMEA Healthcare Consultancy of the Year. It matters to us because our submission was all about Being Human. Would the judges get it? Yes they did! They said our approach was

“a transformation of Virgo’s offer to help it keep pace with the fundamental changes in their clients’ operating environments.
