Welch Allyn has a long history of finding solutions that help solve patient care problems. The company was founded in 1915 when Dr. Francis A. Welch and William Noah Allyn built the world's first hand-held direct-illuminating ophthalmoscope. The company has since expanded its operations to include diagnostic and therapeutic devices, cardiac defibrillators, patient monitoring systems, and miniature precision lamps. Welch Allyn is also a major manufacturer and developer of veterinary devices, marketing directly to veterinarians. Descendents of the founding Allyn family own the company and continue to be involved in its management.
