The Nimble journey began with a loved one who was sick. I found myself visiting the pharmacy multiple times per week rather than caring for my family member. This inspired me to build a different approach – an experience that centered around the patient`s needs and the provider`s workflow. My goal was that customers would LOVE the experience so much that they would tell the world about it.

We are one of the nation`s first health departments and trace our roots back to 1799, when Paul Revere was named Boston`s first health officer. Back then, the board of health was formed to fight a potential outbreak of cholera. Taking innovative strides to save lives, health officials posted signs on lampposts, held meetings and led an early-day public information campaign to reduce deaths due to cholera, a highly preventable disease. Two hundred years later, that tradition of prevention continues through the Boston Public Health Commission. While we are the country`s oldest health department, we pride ourselves on having some of the most innovative services for our residents. Described as "the most activist arm of city government," by the Boston Globe, the Commission has a vigorous commitment to the health of Boston.
