Strong math skills About Parks Medical Electronics Inc First established in 1961, Parks Medical Electronics has a long, established history as the industry's most experienced manufacturer of Doppler ultrasound systems. Founded as Parks Electronics Laboratory by Loren Parks to manufacture plethysmographs of his own design, the Parks product line grew to include impedance plethysmographs, mercury strain gauge plethysmographs, hearing testers, EKG telephone telemetry, and exercise EKG telemetry in the years before Doppler. Parks products are still manufactured domestically at our Oregon facility, allowing us to support products we produce for years beyond the norm. Many of the products we sold over 30 years ago are still in use today… and are still supported by Parks. In a business that has seen numerous competitors come and go, leaving customers without support, Parks has been a constant throughout and remains the industry leader today.
