The MM+M Awards, known for celebrating creativity and effectiveness in healthcare marketing, have become the industry's gold standard. With over 90 expert judges evaluating hundreds of entries, being selected as a finalist is a significant achievement. The awards gala is scheduled for October 10, 2024, in New York City, where winners will be announced.

Kathlene Simmons, CEO of Harper Ellsworth, expressed enthusiasm about the nomination, stating, "We are thrilled that our work for Texas Radiotherapy is selected as a finalist for such a prestigious award. This recognition is the result of incredible teamwork from many talented individuals." Simmons emphasized the collaborative effort that went into raising awareness about prostate cancer, a critical health issue affecting men.

The campaign's success was attributed to the strong partnership between Harper Ellsworth and Texas Radiotherapy. Melvin Strobbe, Project Creative Director, highlighted the importance of this collaboration, noting, "The key to our creative output was having such a great client: Texas Radiotherapy. Dr. Matthew and Sara Cavey were excellent on and off camera and helped us hone a strategy, profiling actual patients, that was based on patient truth."

This nomination underscores the growing importance of effective healthcare marketing in improving public health outcomes. By creating compelling campaigns that resonate with audiences, agencies like Harper Ellsworth play a crucial role in educating the public about critical health issues and available treatments.

The recognition from MM+M, a respected publication in pharmaceutical marketing since 1966, adds credibility to Harper Ellsworth's work. MM+M's editor, Larry Dobrow, commented on the caliber of entries, stating, "The quality and sheer volume of work created by the medical marketing community are wonders to behold.
