Word From Our CEO & President
I
would like to personally welcome you to the very first edition of the Best Docs Network Magazine . To say so much has happened since we first began operations in 2010 , in my opinion , would be an understatement of the year .
Now 246 episodes later , two Emmy nominations , full operations in three major cities , two new launches on the way , growth requiring two facility expansions , a completely refurbished website , and the creation of a fully staffed social media department , we feel we are just getting warmed up .
It is humbling to read a journalist describe the Best Docs Network as the “ World ’ s leader in video segment production for physicians and hospitals .” It ’ s also gratifying to read many emails from viewers who found the right doctor for their particular need , or read stories describing how one of our Best Docs changed their child ’ s life for the good . However , with this comes an enormous sense of responsibility that we do not take lightly .
Our philosophy is simple : we produce high-quality videos designed to educate the public on medical topics and bring the doctors to life . Getting to see the doctors in action and hearing them speak about their practice can be helpful when trying to choose the Best Doc .
We don ’ t just stop at the production of the videos . The next step in the process is distribution , and we feel that no one does it better than we do . Through the world of social media , the Best Docs Network videos are now being viewed thousands of times daily . The Best Docs Network programs viewership is growing weekly and in some cases has shown over 100 % growth from one quarter to the next .
Now , our newest introduction to our offering : the Best Docs Network Magazine . Each issue will feature the doctors within our network along with timely medical articles to further educate our viewers dealing with such things as losing weight , eating healthier and how to protect your family from airborne illnesses .
We encourage you to go to our website , Best- DocsNetwork . com , and watch the videos of the doctors you will read about in the magazine . Be sure to catch our television shows each week on CW 33 at 10 a . m . Sundays and 5:30 a . m . Saturdays . Armed with this new information we feel confident that you will locate the Best Doc for you or your family .
Bill W . Lee Chief Executive Officer
While most of you may have seen me roaming the sidelines of Big 12 football games , and roving the stands at Texas Rangers games on Fox Sports Southwest , my biggest assignment is being President of Identity Media Services , LLC and Executive Producer of the Best Docs Network .
The idea behind the Best Docs Network started with my son . When he was five , I learned that he needed eye surgery . A list was given to me of referred physicians , so my wife and I did our research to learn as much as we could about these doctors . Unfortunately , we could find very little information online about any of these docs . However , there was one doctor who provided a video about himself . His video gave me the assurance I needed to make the right choice for my son .
The Best Docs Network was formed with this story as a basis . One of the company ’ s major goals is to create high-quality and informative videos with educational content . The purpose is to help individuals and their families find the very best doctor who can help change their lives .
My time at Fox Sports allowed me to cover some very unusual stories . I embrace entertaining the audience by going beyond normal halftime interviews and injury updates . Now , with the Best Docs Network , I can take those skills one step further and help bring the best out of every physician and show how they have changed the patient ’ s life .
