About Us

Hawthorne Health is the leading community site network, with 75+ sites across the U.S. and leveraging intelligent technology to accelerate patient access, improve retention, and reduce study costs. By embedding high-quality, compliant research within local communities, Hawthorne makes clinical trials more accessible and convenient for patients.

Traditional trial sites are often fragmented and inefficient. Hawthorne streamlines the process by making trials scalable, cost-effective, and patient-centric. By bringing research directly into communities, Hawthorne shortens timelines and helps bring better treatments to market, faster.
