Ceatus Media Group LLC is an online health media company providing specialized information for consumers, and
connecting doctors with prospective patients.
The company's business model comprises two distinct elements:
- Building health information portals to provide authoritative education
for consumers researching various health
topics
- Connecting consumers with leading health care specialists in their area of
interest through online directories
Consumers and Health Information
More than two-thirds of online Americans use the Internet to search for
health care information, according to published research. To leverage this
developing trend, Ceatus provides
trusted, comprehensive, timely health information that consumers can use
to enhance their health and their lives.
Consumers have come to depend upon online physician directories, consistently among the most-visited
sites on the Internet. These directories must be easy to use and provide up-to-date, specific information to
help consumers make better-informed decisions. Ceatus Media Group creates vehicles
that connect potential patients, who have an interest in certain health care
procedures and services, with the health care specialists who provide them.
