Healthcare Communications Agency in India
ICG is India's specialist healthcare communications agency, providing integrated brand + PR + content + crisis communications for 150+ healthcare brands since 2018. We do strategic communications planning, media relations, doctor thought leadership, internal communications for hospital chains, and crisis communications — all under one integrated team rather than siloed across separate agencies.
Communications fragmentation creates inconsistent brands.
When a healthcare brand uses a separate PR agency, content agency, and brand agency, the three deliver disconnected outputs. ICG provides integrated communications under one team — PR placements support brand positioning, content supports both, crisis playbooks are calibrated against brand strategy. Single accountable team prevents inconsistency.
