Merge Medical with Harvey Castro, MD: Changemakers in Medicine

Hosted by physicians Dr. Jeff Cole and Dr. Jeff Brown, the Merge Medical Startup Podcast sits at a unique crossroads. It’s built for a community of clinicians and health professionals who look beyond the clinic walls, driven by curiosity about healthcare innovation, investment, and the practical business realities of medicine. Each episode stems from a deep search for the most compelling new companies and technologies emerging in the startup and growth-stage landscape. You’ll hear directly from the founders behind these ventures, getting an unfiltered look at the problems they’re solving and the journeys they’re on. To fit different listening habits, conversations are thoughtfully edited into two distinct formats. There’s a rapid-fire "10 in 10" teaser for a quick insight, alongside longer, in-depth interviews that delve into the nuances of building a health-focused business. This podcast provides a grounded, professional perspective on where medicine meets the market, offering a clear window into the ideas and people shaping the future of care.
