With a dedicated team for healthcare research and experience of working and advising on a wide range of projects, Acumen are one of the UK’s leading medical marketing companies.
We are vastly experienced in all aspects of market research, but also appreciate that medical marketing requires different skills and bespoke knowledge.
This is why we established a team to focus entirely on healthcare market research, working with sensitivity and also the ability to call upon our own network of healthcare users and professionals to get the insights you need.
At Acumen, we are renowned for using innovative approaches to gain detailed insights and this is demonstrated in our case studies in the medical field. Please take the time to read some of the details for the case studies below to see how we have delivered the level of insight required.
One project saw us work on a project that studied the pathway to recovery for drug users recovering from Hepatitis C.
Our database of existing healthcare users was of prime importance, it enabled us to quickly ascertain the feasibility of the study – ultimately the project was feasible and we were able to deliver the required level of research.
In another project, we worked with a pharmaceutical company who had developed a new app, the aim to see if the app was providing the help and support intended.
We worked to find how those with asthma used the app – the hope of the manufacturer being they would record details of inhaler use and so this could help showcase patterns of usage and habits.
Again, our database of users was beneficial, but we also turned to social media to find further participants. This highlighted our knowledge of innovative ways to gain participants – those active on social media on mobile devices who responded likely to also be regular users of apps and so suitable candidates.
