Our Story
In 1994, BroadcastMed was founded as Storyline Pictures, a traditional broadcast production company founded by Emmy Award-winning producers Ross Joel and Peter Gailey. From the beginning, BroadcastMed produced quality healthcare programming in the clinical setting, introducing to the world the concept of live streaming surgical broadcasts via the internet.
