ATLANTA – July 2016: Gwinnett Health System (GHS) has grown over the past 70 years from a single facility in Duluth, GA to a multi-campus health system across Gwinnett County. GHS wanted to stand out as a thought leader in the Atlanta/state media conversation on healthcare topics and tapped Cookerly for the job.
Our Healthcare Practice Group is promoting GHS’ top service lines, state-of-the-art equipment/procedures and high-quality care. Early media coverage has featured a hospital event on concussion testing and placements for a new device that treats abdominal aortic aneurysms in five markets across the state.
