BodyPartChart is reinventing medical posters with the help of
FatHead technology, prompting the start-up to move to downtown Detroit from Livonia.
"We're thrilled to be a part of the renaissance of Detroit," says Dr. Sam Gray, co-founder of
BodyPartChart.
Gray,
a chiropractor, adds that most of the medical charts in use in medical
facilities across the country are decades old and overly technical.
BodyPartChart's wall posters are current, make a better presentation and
are more intelligible to patients.
"We thought the old medical
posters weren't doing it anymore," Dr. Gray says. "Today's patient is
more aware of their condition or the procedure."
The 1-year-old
firm currently employs five people, and expects to hire another 5-10
over the next year. The company is currently speaking to potential
customer both domestic and international in countries like Japan and
Australia.
