Welch Allyn was founded in 1915 in Auburn, New York by Dr. Francis Welch and inventor William Noah Allyn. The two formed a partnership and developed the first hand-held, direct-illuminating ophthalmoscope. The company moved to Skaneateles Falls in 1953, where it is still headquartered today, and where they manufacture medical devices and patient monitoring systems. The company was family-owned until it was acquired in 2015 by Hillrom, which was purchased by Baxter International in 2021.
