Procedure Press Publishing

Women remaking medicine

Procedure Press, an independent publishing house for bold, bright healthcare books and part of the Uncommon Bold brand, launched its first title in January 2019. Procedure Volume 1: Women Remaking Medicine by Emily F. Peters profiles ten women in medicine who used their unique strengths to advocate for a better, safer, and more affordable healthcare system.
Our goal was to create an elevated experience to that which is typically found in healthcare publishing with a design-forward book that supported the impact of the content inside. Over 6 months, Christina managed the publishing process, from providing creative direction and pushing the cover design to evolve to its current iteration to overseeing photoshoots to coordinating interviews and editing interview content for clarity, while simultaneously planning and executing a 125-guest launch party during the JP Morgan Healthcare conference.

Love love love this book! It highlights women in medicine. When most people think of the medical field they think of men and this book really shows that women play a huge part in medicine. I also love how the book is so full of life with the colored pages! I’ve been letting all my girlfriends read it as well! — Annie S., Amazon review

Congratulations on the launch! The book is gorgeous and well-done. I started reading it this morning. The party, of course, was amazing. The best one of JPM, especially with the strong female turnout. — Ann Garnier, Lisa Health

What a great experience your launch was. I was "wowed" by the people I met and conversations I had. You were a beautiful and exciting host. The book looks terrific and I am enjoying the bit I've been able to read so far. — Sheila, Procedure Press launch party guest

WOW what an incredible book launch party you hosted on Tuesday. As a fellow healthcare marketer, I am so very inspired by you and your book. I look forward to staying in touch, and would love to join your network. Congratulations again! — Denise, Procedure Press launch party guest

My compliments to you and your team on a fabulous event. I met some interesting people and the room looked great. Well done, congratulations — Dionne, Procedure Press launch party guest
