At A+D Health, a division of Arrivals + Departures, we want to give people the opportunity to live a healthier life. This is why we have embarked on building a healthcare practice to tackle some of the toughest challenges in healthcare advertising today. A+D Health is a boutique creative agency focused on healthcare with a truly patient‑centric approach. Creating a personal environment with smaller, experienced teams allows us for more effective communication and the opportunity for sharing skills and ideas from all levels.
We pride ourselves on being a part of our client’s everyday business and being an extension of their team. Our teams are structured efficiently based on our client’s specific needs and level of qualifications. From specialty care in Oncology and Rare Diseases, to Not‑for‑Profits, to consumer brands in the healthcare category. We will take the multi‑faceted experience that we can provide and apply it to everything we do for your business.
This is our promise to you!
