Women’s Health Center of Excellence

At Weber Shandwick, we know that the patient journey for women is rarely linear. The healthcare system is often stacked against them due to a lack of literature, inadequate training, and medical dismissal. We aren’t just aware of the gaps – we’re working to close them. We evaluate the landscape to understand how women circumvent these barriers online, uncovering opportunities to partner with clients on revolutionary work in women’s health.
How Reddit Empowers Women’s Health

When traditional clinical settings leave questions unanswered and medical issues disregarded, women build their own health ecosystems.

In fact, women on Reddit are more comfortable talking about their bodies on the platform than with their own friends and families.
Our newest report with Reddit explores this fundamental shift in patient behavior and the unexpected ways peer support is intersecting with the digital landscape.
