Sylvie Health runs patient education webinars led by senior New Zealand clinicians. Sponsoring a session puts your organisation in front of an engaged, self-selected patient audience — with clinically independent content your compliance team can approve.
Enquire About Sponsorship → See the CalendarSylvie Health was founded by Dr Manoj Patel to close a simple gap: patients in New Zealand often leave a 15-minute consultation with more questions than answers. Our webinars give them an hour with a senior New Zealand clinician — in plain language, with time for the questions they didn't get to ask. Sessions are free, run one hour with live Q&A, and are recorded and sent to every registrant.
Every session is led by a practising New Zealand specialist or allied health professional, so guidance reflects the local healthcare system, funding and referral pathways.
Our attendees are patients and their families who have actively sought out education about their own condition — not a purchased list.
We handle promotion, registration, hosting, moderation, recording and follow-up. Sponsors provide a logo and approve their acknowledgment wording.
Sylvie Health's webinar series launched in 2026. Our most recent session — held on Sunday 26 July 2026 on inflammatory conditions, delivered by a leading Auckland rheumatologist — produced the following:
| Metric | Result | Benchmark |
|---|---|---|
| Registrants | 600 | — |
| Live attendees | 300 — a 50% attendance rate | Industry avg. ~40% |
| Session length | 60 minutes — 45 min presentation + Q&A | — |
| Post-event reach | All 600 registrants received follow-up and the full recording | 100% of list |
Registrations are driven through Sylvie Health's own opted-in database of New Zealanders living with or managing long-term health conditions, supplemented by targeted advertising in the lead-up to each event. Because every registrant receives the recording, engagement continues well beyond the live hour.
