7 Best Medtech and Medical Device PR Agencies in 2027

The best medtech PR agencies combine documented medical device or health technology work with the discipline to keep every claim inside what regulators have cleared or approved. This 2027 list compares seven firms, led by Virgo PR, which publishes the list. Each entry states only what the agency itself publishes, so buyers can check the evidence before they call.

Updated November 15, 2026. Virgo PR publishes this guide and also sells PR services. This is general information, not legal advice.

In short:

• Seven agencies are compared, ranked by how much medtech-specific evidence each one publishes.
• Evidence means named sector pages, case studies and stated client types on the agency's own site, not awards or paid placements.
• Medtech PR differs from general tech PR because device claims have to match what the FDA has cleared or approved.
• Ask every agency who reviews claims, how bad news is handled and what is billed outside the retainer.

Which agencies are the best for medtech and medical device PR in 2027?

Seven agencies make the list for 2027, and the order reflects how much medtech-specific evidence each publishes. The table summarizes what each firm says about its work. Virgo PR is ranked first because it publishes this guide, and the disclosure above applies.

Treat the table as a starting shortlist. No ranking can tell a company which agency fits its product, budget and regulatory stage.

How was this list chosen?

The list was chosen by reading each agency's own public pages for medtech or medical device evidence and by excluding any firm that could not be checked. Virgo PR did not use paid placement, survey data or client testimonials. Three tests applied to every firm.

• The agency names medical device, medtech or diagnostics clients or sectors on its own site.
• The site shows at least one case study or sector page with real work, not only a service description.
• The agency describes how it handles regulated claims or scientific review.

Where an agency's page is undated, the entry says only what the page states. Facts can change, so confirm anything important with the agency before signing. Firms that did not meet the tests were left off, which is why this list is shorter than a typical directory.

What does each agency publish about its medtech work?

1. Virgo PR. Virgo PR is a boutique PR, investor relations and digital content agency in Miami. Its healthcare PR agency guide covers providers, medical device makers and digital health startups, including HIPAA-aware messaging, FDA-adjacent launches and clinical validation. Full-service media retainers start around $10,000 per month with a three month minimum, as described on the Virgo PR pricing page.

2. RH Strategic. RH Strategic's healthcare page features a case study on a first-of-its-kind medical device that was nearing FDA approval, tagged for media relations, FDA approval and medical devices. The firm says many pharma and device companies wrongly treat approval as the starting line, and that the companies that win the narrative build credibility long before regulatory milestones arrive.

3. PRLab. PRLab describes itself as a HealthTech and MedTech PR agency within a wider B2B technology practice, with offices in Amsterdam, Stockholm, Austin, Munich and Madrid. Its sector page lists a Siilo case study, for a secure medical messenger built for healthcare professionals, and a Neurosoft case study. The 200-plus client figure on its page is the agency's own claim.

4. HealthSpark PR. HealthSpark PR focuses on healthtech PR for digital health apps, medical and wellness devices and diagnostics. It says it works with medical device, clinical diagnostics and at-home testing companies on expert positioning, launch coverage and media relations, and it publishes an Omhale case study. It also notes that a wellness device can earn coverage through expert commentary without making medical claims.

5. Clarity Quest. Clarity Quest says it places clients in publications, podcasts, videos and blogs and ghostwrites for executives and scientists at healthcare tech, life sciences, biotechnology, medical technology and medical device companies. Its public success stories include Fathom, with targeted PR and content ahead of a $46 million Series B, and CRB, with 25 media placements in three months of PR outreach and search work, per the agency.

6. Enterie. Enterie is a specialist technology PR agency that lists medtech among its sectors. Its medtech page shows media relations work for Dreem, a French neuroscience firm whose headband brings sleep clinic technology into the bedroom, and for a five-in-one handheld telemedicine device. The case study page appears older than the others, so ask for current references.

7. Finn Partners. A 2026 pricing and agency guide from AM World Group describes Finn Partners' global health practice as offering integrated healthcare communications across pharmaceutical, biotech, medical device and health systems clients. The detail comes from that third-party guide and not from a Finn Partners case study, so ask the firm for device-specific work.

Why is medtech PR different from general tech PR?

Medtech PR is different because a device claim has to match what the FDA has cleared or approved, and the audiences include clinicians, hospital buyers, regulators and investors. A general tech PR firm can announce a feature. A medtech firm has to ask whether the wording implies a use the device is not cleared for. One medtech marketing guide describes the work as reaching clinicians, hospital buyers and patients while staying inside FDA promotional rules.

Virgo's FDA communications guide sets out five rules for biotech announcements that apply equally to devices: careful wording of safe or effective, matching the FDA record, Regulation FD for public companies, one source of truth and rejection planning. Counsel should review any regulated claim before it is published.

What does medtech PR cover at each stage?

Medtech PR changes with the product's regulatory and commercial stage, and the work is easier to buy when the stage is clear. The table is a planning aid based on this site's working view, not a published standard.

StageTypical communications focusWhat to ask an agencyPre-clearanceFounder and science credibility, first financing, clinician relationshipsHow do you talk about a product that is not yet cleared?Clearance or approvalRegulatory announcement, investor and clinician messagingWho approves wording against the FDA record?LaunchTrade and clinical press, customer stories, hospital buyersWhich outlets do buyers actually read?Post-marketClinical data, conference presentations, safety communicationWhat is the plan for a recall or adverse event?

Funding news often arrives before clearance, and the same discipline applies. The biotech financing announcements guide shows how to word amounts and contingencies, and the topline data releases guide shows how releases handle good, mixed and bad news.

How do you choose a medtech PR agency?

Choose a medtech PR agency by checking evidence, team and process in that order. Ask each shortlisted firm the same questions so the answers can be compared.

• Which medical device or diagnostics clients have you worked with, and can we speak to one?
• Who reviews claims against the FDA record before anything is published?
• Who will do the daily work, and who joins calls?
• What is the plan if a clinical result, clearance or launch is delayed or negative?
• How many announcements and pitches are included each quarter?
• What is billed outside the retainer, such as wire distribution, monitoring, events and travel?
• What are the minimum term and notice period?

No agency can promise coverage, because journalists decide independently. Be cautious of promised placements, and compare budgets using Virgo's healthcare PR cost guide and biotech PR cost guide.

What mistakes do medtech companies make when hiring PR?

• Hiring a generalist. A firm unfamiliar with device claims can publish wording that creates regulatory risk.
• Treating clearance as the starting line. Credibility with clinicians and buyers takes time to build before the announcement.
• Skipping scientific and legal review. Technical and regulatory claims should be approved by someone who can defend them.
• Choosing on fee alone. A lower fee can mean a junior team and fewer deliverables.
• Ignoring the bad-news plan. Agree the response and sign-off chain before a recall, delay or negative result.

Frequently asked questions

What is a medtech PR agency?

A medtech PR agency is a communications firm that handles media relations, thought leadership, launch and funding announcements for medical device, diagnostics and health technology companies, while keeping claims inside regulatory limits.

How is medtech PR different from biotech PR?

Biotech PR centers on trial data and development milestones. Medtech PR centers on clearance or approval, device claims, clinician and hospital buyers and post-market safety communication, though the two overlap on funding and regulatory news.

Does a medtech company need a specialist agency?

A specialist is safer when the product carries regulatory claims, because a generalist may miss wording that implies an uncleared use. A company with a simple wellness device and no medical claims may need less specialization.

How much does medtech PR cost?

Published healthcare PR ranges run from about $5,000 to $75,000 or more a month, depending on scope. Those figures are third-party estimates, so see the healthcare PR cost guide for sources and limits.

Can PR guarantee coverage for a medical device?

No. Journalists decide independently, and any agency that guarantees placements should be treated with caution.

How was this list of medtech agencies chosen?

Each agency was checked against its own public pages for medical device or medtech clients, a real case study or sector page, and a stated approach to regulated claims. Firms that could not be checked were excluded.
