Penn Highlands Healthcare’s professional relationship with True Fit Marketing began more than a decade ago when I first worked with Arlea Hoffman on a digital marketing project. I valued her insight, strategic planning and creativity — but most of all her integrity.
It was only natural that when Arlea founded True Fit Marketing in 2018, we would continue working together. Through the years, Penn Highlands Healthcare has relied on her professional team to help us create engaging testimonial videos as well as still photography that captures the personalities of our physicians and patients. In addition, True Fit Marketing has worked with us to provide still and drone images at facilities throughout our system in Northwest, Central and Southwest Pennsylvania.
The team is incredible. Their passion is helping organizations tell their stories through multi-channel marketing; and no request is too large or small for them. They are talented and tech savvy.

”Case Study: Penn Highlands Healthcare
A Multimedia Partnership Built on Relationships, Trust and Regional Expertise
About the Partner
Penn Highlands Healthcare is a growing regional healthcare system serving communities across Pennsylvania. After acquiring Mon Valley Hospital, they began the process of rebranding their southwestern PA location under the Penn Highlands name. With this expansion came a new marketing challenge: telling a unified brand story while still connecting locally with the Mon Valley community. That’s where True Fit Marketing came in.
The Beginning of a New Chapter
The True Fit Marketing team had previously worked with the Mon Valley Hospital marketing team on various marketing efforts, so when Penn Highlands Healthcare acquired the hospital, they returned to True Fit Marketing for support in launching a multi-phase rebranding campaign. As a local agency familiar with the community, our team was ready to guide them along a new marketing journey, this time with a broader vision and an even larger audience.
Our Role in the Journey
In the discovery meeting, True Fit Marketing met with Penn Highlands’ internal marketing team, who oversee communications across multiple hospital locations. Together a multi-year roadmap with clear goals and deliverables was outlined. Each phase was built to position Penn Highlands as a trusted, accessible healthcare provider with top-tier physicians and care options right here in the Mon Valley. They wanted to focus on local care without having to drive hours away to larger cities.
The True Fit Marketing team led the following:
- Meet the Physician Video Series
True Fit Marketing collaborated with physician managers to schedule, film, and produce more than 20 physician videos that introduced local doctors and specialists to the community. Each video was designed to highlight the wide range of healthcare services available in the Mon Valley without the need to travel to Pittsburgh or beyond. These professionally produced pieces now serve as powerful advertising tools across Penn Highlands’ media channels. - Physician and Patient Testimonials
The second phase of the project included deeper storytelling. Our team helped craft compelling video narratives featuring physicians and their patients. These stories aligned closely with Penn Highlands’ mission: delivering quality, personalized care, locally. The testimonial videos helped reinforce the value of the new system while honoring the legacy of care in the region. - Professional Headshots and Marketing Collateral
To support brand consistency, our photographer captured updated headshots of the physicians at various locations. These high-quality images were used across printed materials, website profiles, and advertising pieces, maintaining a polished, professional look throughout all marketing efforts. - Drone and Location Videography
Our multimedia team also captured drone footage of Penn Highlands’ locations across Pennsylvania, from southwestern to northeastern regions. This visual content became essential in website design, commercials, and promotional content.
Why the Partnership Works
Even with a strong in-house marketing team, Penn Highlands recognized the need for a local agency that could bring multimedia expertise and regional understanding to the table. They leaned on True Fit Marketing to provide the creative execution that their internal team did not have the bandwidth or specialty to manage.
Our team adapted quickly, remained flexible in scheduling across multiple locations, and delivered consistently branded content that matched Penn Highlands’ identity. Clear communication, shared goals, and a mutual respect for timelines and expectations have made this partnership successful and enjoyable.
A Local Marketing Partner That Understands the Bigger Picture
For True Fit Marketing, being a local agency means more than just proximity. It means understanding the community, knowing the market, and being able to act quickly when clients need us. With Penn Highlands Healthcare, True Fit Marketing is proud to serve as a trusted partner on their ongoing marketing path, helping them expand their reach and reinforce their mission across Pennsylvania.
