MD Newsline BRAND · WEBSITES · EDITORIAL · SOCIAL THE VIBE CURATOR CO. A HEALTH MEDIA FAMILY Medical news for clinicians. Real stories for everyone else. MD Newsline serves the clinician. We built the patient side of the family: a new brand and website for Patient Circles and a newsletter program for Heart to Heart. patientcircles.com
01 · THE BRIEF One network. Two audiences who rarely meet. MD Newsline speaks to clinicians. The people they treat needed a place of their own: plain language, lived experience, and help walking into the next appointment better prepared. Patient Circles became that place, with Heart to Heart as a focused companion for heart health.
Three brands. One family. 01 · MD NEWSLINE The clinician publication and the parent of the network. Medical news with a modern view. 02 · PATIENT CIRCLES The patient platform. New brand, WordPress website, editorial library, and social launch. 03 · HEART TO HEART The heart health microsite. Website, newsletter signup, and a welcome email built to feel premium. CLINICIAN-FACING PATIENT-FACING COMMUNITY-FACING
02 · THE BRAND A brand built on being heard. A full brand and communication framework: positioning, voice, color, type, iconography, personas, and messaging for six audiences, from patients and caregivers to clinicians and sponsors.
COLOR · TYPE · VOICE Calm, warm, and never clinical. DEEP GREEN PERIWINKLE BLUSH CREAM SUNLIGHT TERRACOTTA Aa Every health journey deserves to be heard. An editorial serif for stories, a friendly sans for guidance, and yellow highlights for the line worth remembering.
03 · THE WEBSITE Find what you need. Feel less alone. A WordPress build with condition hubs, perspective filters, and story pages, so a newly diagnosed reader and a caregiver can each find their own way in. patientcircles.com/articles patientcircles.com
04 · CONDITION HUBS Start where you are. 11 condition hubs at launch 55 launch articles in the library 5 article types for every condition 6 audiences, each with its own message MEN'S HEALTH WOMEN'S HEALTH CANCER DIABETES MENTAL HEALTH MATERNAL HEALTH WEIGHT LOSS + WELLNESS ASTHMA AUTISM ADHD HIV
05 · THE EDITORIAL SYSTEM Real stories, carefully told. Every condition gets the same five-part path, written for patients and reviewed in two lanes: one for voice and sensitivity, one for clinical accuracy. 01 Foundational guide 02 Patient story, told first person 03 Practical guide 04 Advocacy piece 05 Decision support THE PIPELINE Topic planned · Draft · Editorial review · Clinical review · Artwork · Published
06 · SOCIAL LAUNCH Social that leads somewhere. Six launch ideas adapted for Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. Every post has one job: a newsletter signup or a shared story. INSTAGRAM · FACEBOOK · LINKEDIN PATIENT VOICES · HEALTH, CLEARLY · CAREGIVER CIRCLE
07 · HEART TO HEART Real answers. Real stories. Straight from the heart. A website and newsletter for a heart health community, on the same build as Patient Circles. The welcome email was benchmarked against premium lifestyle brands, not clinic handouts, and wired straight into the CRM. 01 Website on the shared WordPress build 02 Newsletter signup and welcome flow 03 CRM integration for every new subscriber
The final chapter. Every health journey deserves to be heard. Each page ends in one next step: read the story, join the newsletter, or share your own.

Health brand, website and email program for a Chicago medical media network

MD Newsline is a medical news publication for clinicians. Working with the team in Chicago, The Vibe Curator Co. built the patient side of the network: a new brand and website for Patient Circles, and a website and newsletter program for the Heart to Heart heart health community.

The challenge

MD Newsline speaks to clinicians, but the patients they treat needed a place of their own, with plain language, lived experience and help walking into their next appointment better prepared. The network needed new brands that felt calm, warm and never clinical.

What we did

  • A full Patient Circles brand and communication framework: positioning, voice, color, type, personas and messaging for six audiences
  • A WordPress website with 11 condition hubs, perspective filters and story submission
  • A 55 article launch library and a two lane editorial workflow for voice and clinical accuracy
  • A social launch system across Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn
  • The Heart to Heart website, newsletter signup and a premium welcome email connected to the CRM
  • A website redesign strategy for MD Newsline

The result

Patient Circles launched with 11 condition hubs and 55 articles, and every page ends in one next step: read a story, join the newsletter or share your own. Heart to Heart turns every new subscriber into a CRM contact from day one.
