Leslie Bennett — Healthcare Marketing Consultant Charleston SC

Meet Leslie

The strategist behind the brand

With a B.S. in Healthcare Management and nine years in pathology lab operations — including marketing, sales training, and business development — I bring something most marketing consultants can't: I actually understand your world.

Your compliance concerns. Your patient relationships. Your referral networks. The way a busy practice operates day to day. And exactly how to communicate your value to the people who need you most.

I'm based in the Charleston, SC area and work with a select number of healthcare clients at a time — so you always get my full attention, not a template handed to an assistant.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Why do patients choose one medical practice over another?
Patients often choose practices based on trust and familiarity built before they ever step through the door. Practices that communicate consistently online — through social media, blogs, and educational content — give patients a sense of who the doctor is, what to expect, and whether the practice is the right fit. This happens long before the appointment is booked.
How important is social media for medical practices?
Social media is increasingly important for medical practices because patients research providers online before booking appointments. Consistent, strategic content helps practices build trust, stay top of mind for referrals, and differentiate themselves in competitive markets like Charleston, SC.
What does healthcare marketing look like for a small medical practice?
Effective healthcare marketing for small practices doesn't require a large budget — it requires consistency and intentional content. Educational posts that answer patient questions, behind-the-scenes content that makes the practice feel approachable, and messaging that addresses common concerns. A clear strategy matters far more than volume of posts.
Why should a medical practice hire a healthcare marketing consultant?
A healthcare marketing consultant with actual industry experience understands compliance sensitivities, referral-based business models, and the unique communication needs of medical practices. This is fundamentally different from hiring a general marketing agency that applies the same strategy across every industry.
How much does healthcare social media management cost?
Healthcare social media management typically ranges from $1,500 to $5,000 per month depending on scope. Leslie Bennett Consulting offers retainer packages starting at $1,500 per month for medical practices and specialty providers in the Charleston, SC area. A one-time Marketing Blueprint package is also available at $1,500 for practices that prefer to start with strategy.
Does Leslie Bennett Consulting work with practices outside of Charleston?
While Leslie Bennett Consulting is based in Summerville, SC and primarily serves the greater Charleston area, remote consulting and strategy work is available for practices anywhere in South Carolina and beyond.

Why patients choose one practice over another (and it's rarely about the care)
