Branding & Awareness Campaign
UBMD Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine
For more than a decade, JFG has served as the trusted marketing partner for UBMD Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine (UBMDOSM), the largest orthopaedics group in Western New York. During that time, UBMDOSM has grown from 20 physicians to 48 physicians, and the practice is still expanding, with its physicians serving as the official team doctors for the Buffalo Bills, Buffalo Sabres, Buffalo Bandits, Rochester Americans and several collegiate teams.
Although UBMDOSM has long been recognized by both the medical community and patients for its expertise, the group needed a strong brand message that positioned them firmly as the leading orthopaedics experts in Western New York, even among increasing health care options and competition.

Expertise was always at the center of the work UBMDOSM was doing, which led JFG to develop the overarching brand message, “Expertise is Everything,” with a supporting message, “The Best At Making You Better.” Referring to highly specialized, fellowship-trained physicians, as well as continuously superior patient outcomes, this value proposition is what both patients and referring physicians can relate to, persuading them to seek UBMDOSM for expert care.
This unified brand messaging continues to be used in all ongoing marketing initiatives across traditional and digital media, website content, print collateral and more, elevating the perception of UBMDOSM across the Western New York community.
