Stacey Bernstein, executive VP & global director of digital health at Weber Shandwick, has joined M Booth Health as CEO.
She succeeds Tim Bird, who is taking on the chairman role as he transitions to a consulting role at the Next 15 Communications Group unit.
Bernstein, who also served as general manager of Weber’s Boston outpost, did a nearly dozen-year run at the Interpublic PR flagship.
She joined Weber from Edelman, where she did a four-year stint.
Bernstein will report to M Booth CEO Dale Bornstein.
She praised Bird for “the leadership and vision that brought his agency under the M Booth umbrella.”
Next 15 acquired Health Unlimited’s US division, which was headed by Bird, in 2019.
Health Unlimited and its specialist consultancy Corkery Group were rebranded as M Booth Health, which took the No. 12 slot in O’Dwyer’s rankings of healthcare PR firms with $14.4M in fees for 2020.
Charlie Chapman, a policy advisor to Health & Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr., has joined BGR’s health & life sciences practice.
The future of DTC should foster understanding and trust, as well as improving clinical conversations.
Healing the Sick Care System: Why People Matter, a new book from FINN Partners chair global health and purpose Gil Bashe, says that the current healthcare system is not broken because it lacks innovation, talent or investment, but because it has lost sight of the people it exists to serve.
