Our Videos Rocket Past 1.2 Million Playbacks!

By Adam Pick on May 31, 2018

This is unexpected...

I just learned that the 125+ educational videos we created for the patients and the caregivers in our community just surged past 1,200,000 views in our YouTube Channel. Woo-Whoo!!!

What makes this milestone so interesting and (wonderful) is that we have not advertised any of our videos. That's right! We have not paid for a single playback since launch.

Video view count at the HeartValveSurgery.com YouTube channel

For me... It's amazing to see how our video production capabilities have evolved since our first "Flip Cam" video was filmed with Dr. Richard Shemin (see below) in 2011 to our latest video filmed onsite with Dr. Badhwar at WVU Heart & Vascular Institute (see below) in 2018.

Thanks to your interest and sponsor support, we are now able to make educational videos with a camera crew. As a result, the video quality has gone way up just as the video playbacks have gone way up. I'm so happy seeing how these educational videos are helping patients get empowered specific to their disease, their treatment options and their care providers.

I need to thank our video team for their amazing work, their passion and their travels across the United States and abroad. I'd also like to extend a special thanks to all the wonderful patients, care partners, surgeons, cardiologists, nurses, physician assistants, and medical device manufactures who have "starred" in our video productions. Your stories and your insights are inspiring and educating the world! Lastly, I need to extend a special thanks to Gideon Sims, at Mount Sinai Hospital, for helping me learn tons about video production!!

Keep on tickin!
