Let us bring your mission to life

Health Content Collective (HCC) has one goal in mind – to help you connect more meaningfully with your audience. Gone are the days of stale patient education pamphlets from a doctor’s office. We break the traditional patient education mold, by providing content with clear, actionable steps that captures and keeps the attention of your target audience. 

HCC offers a fresh new take, speaking directly to patients and caregivers via engaging and in-depth content--from animated explainer videos and interviews with key opinion leaders to live webinars.

Our Leadership Team

Health Content Collective was founded by Thea Burris and Jamie Machala, and provides communications services to the healthcare community.

Health Content Collective has fostered long-term relationships with numerous academic medical centers, key opinion leaders, and advocacy groups. Coupled with more than 30 years of involvement in healthcare education & marketing, we have a comprehensive and specialized understanding of the unique needs of the medical and patient communities.
