that empower patients, physicians, employees and consumers to securely
exchange knowledge, interact with healthcare organizations and access
medical records online.
Since inception, under the strategic direction of Gale, MedSeek has
grown revenue and projects 2006 revenues to be $18 million, yielding a 5
year CAGR of 23.15%. The company reached profitability in 2000, has been
consistently profitable since then and expects to report $2 million in
earnings in 2006. With the exception of $2.7 million in initial investor
financing, MedSeek has been financed exclusively from operating cash
flow. In March 2006 Gale orchestrated a strategic merger and engaged the

it drives a new paradigm in healthcare for which the time has come: “To
use the social change agents of the Internet to give patients and others
a forum for freely exchanging information in today’s provider-and-
payer-centric healthcare system.” As Wilson-Steele was quoted in the
July 2006 issue of Healthcare IT News, “Healthcare is about to have a
revolution, and the forces are the patients themselves.”
A graduate of Stanford University, Gale is married and has four children.
