A good number of health podcasts accept guests, and the seven below publish a guest form or pitch route on their own site. Five lean toward health tech and the business of care, and two toward wellness and recovery. All of them want a guest with one specific story who is qualified to tell it.
For each show you get what it covers, who fits, and a link to its own guest or contact page. Pages change, so check the route before you pitch.

The Heart of Healthcare
A Monday podcast about digital health, co-hosted by Michael Esquivel, Halle Tecco and Steve Kraus, who bring law, founder and venture backgrounds. The join us page says most guests are founders or CEOs, it generally does not feature service providers, and right now it prioritizes timely news like a raise or an acquisition. The same page says it gets over 1,000 pitches a year for about 35 guest spots, so make yours count.
Breaking Health
The podcast from the Digital Healthcare Innovation Summit runs frank interviews with digital health innovators and business leaders. The guest inquiry form lets you pick your group, from startups and investors to providers, payers and academia. If you fit, the team emails you to schedule.
The Healthtech Podcast
Aimed at healthtech founders, operators and commercial leaders, per its guest application page. The next step after applying is a short call to shape the episode. The page also sells optional clip packages and states that choosing one never affects whether or how you are booked.
Healthcare Success Podcast
Stewart Gandolf, CEO of Healthcare Success, covers healthcare marketing, innovation and the business of care. The guest page looks for health system executives, private equity backed leaders, founders and innovators from areas like SaaS, devices and telehealth.
ExpertCast
Radiologist Gustavo Meirelles hosts interviews on AI in health, telehealth, health data, device regulation and lifestyle medicine. The site lists the show in Portuguese, English and Spanish. Its contact form has a guest or topic suggestion option, and it promises a reply within 48 business hours.
Heal Nourish Grow
Wellness coach Cheryl McColgan covers low carb and keto nutrition, health habits and research breakdowns, with expert interviews and personal stories. It fits clinicians, researchers and coaches in nutrition and metabolic health. The show page links a form for would-be guests.
Heal with Grace
Grace Secker's show is about holistic healing and chronic symptoms. The be a guest page invites two groups: people who have recovered from chronic symptoms and people whose work helps others heal. It says Grace reads every pitch herself.
Several health tech shows also sit in the Prends tech podcasts list, and you can browse all podcasts by topic and language.
Who makes a good health podcast guest?
Health shows book a wider range of people than you might expect:
- Clinicians who can explain one condition, treatment approach or care model in plain words.
- Health tech founders and executives with news, a hard lesson, or a view on where care is heading.
- Researchers who can make one study useful for a general or industry audience.
- Marketers and operators in healthcare, for shows like the Healthcare Success Podcast.
- People with lived experience, for shows like Heal with Grace that center recovery stories.
A note on credentials and health claims
In health, what you say can change what a listener does with their body. A few sensible rules:
- Stay inside your expertise. A founder can talk about building a care company. A dietitian can talk about nutrition. Neither should drift into diagnosing.
- Expect to be asked. Hosts may ask about your training, license or affiliations, especially before a medical topic. Put them in your pitch so nobody has to dig.
- Label experience as experience. If you share what worked for you or your patients, say so plainly and avoid promising results to listeners.
- Disclose interests. If you sell a product, a supplement or a service linked to the topic, say it up front.
These are common host expectations, and none of them is legal or medical advice.
How do you pick the right health podcast to pitch?
Listen to two recent episodes before you pitch, then check:
- Industry or public audience. The Heart of Healthcare and Breaking Health talk to people who build, fund and run healthcare. Heal Nourish Grow and Heal with Grace talk to people managing their own health. The same topic needs a different angle for each.
- Guest type. If the last ten guests were CEOs and you are a clinician, look for a show that books clinicians.
- Timing. Some shows want news. A raise, a study or a launch is a better hook than a general profile.
- Language. ExpertCast lists Portuguese, English and Spanish, which helps if you work in Portuguese or Spanish speaking markets.
How do you pitch a health or medical podcast?
Keep it under 150 words and cover:
- One topic. "Why most remote monitoring programs stall after the pilot" beats "the future of healthcare."
- Your qualification. Role, training or the company you built, in one line.
- Why now. A raise, a study, a policy change or a launch.
- Proof. A link to your work, research or company.
- A nod to the show. One recent episode and how your topic connects.
Our podcast guest pitch template has versions you can copy. Once you are booked, how to prepare for a podcast interview covers prep and audio.
Choose the two shows above that match your background, listen to one recent episode of each, and send a pitch that states your credentials in the first two lines.
