From Behind the Wheel
One of the originals: reflecting on nearly 25 years at MedSpeed
At MedSpeed, longevity is a testament to purpose, passion, and people. In this special interview for our 25th anniversary, we had the opportunity to sit down with one of our longest-tenured MedSpeeders, Henry Nim, who will celebrate his 25th year with MedSpeed in October.
The very beginning
More than two decades ago, a personal recommendation from his doctor introduced him to MedSpeed. What started as a simple referral turned into a lifelong career filled with growth, learning and leadership.“I’ve been with MedSpeed for 24 years and 6 months,” he shared. “I’ve stayed because I want to contribute meaningfully—for as long as I can make a positive impact, I’ll be here.”
If he could offer one message to his younger self just starting at MedSpeed? “Stay curious and always keep learning.”
Advice for the next generation
For those just beginning their MedSpeed journey, he offers this advice: “Outshine those around you. Establish positive habits early—they will contribute to your performance.”
And what qualities make someone successful here? “Communication, integrity and adaptability,” he says without hesitation. His motivation comes from intentionality: “Choose your goals wisely. When you’re working toward the right goal, motivation follows—and stays.”
Eyes on the future
Looking ahead, he’s most excited about “how MedSpeed is expanding into new markets, all while maintaining their strong values.” He mentions, “The friendly people and how helpful everyone is, is what makes MedSpeed special.”
Grateful for his contributions
“Henry has been a huge contributor to building our culture and demonstrating what it means to be a MedSpeeder. I feel incredibly fortunate to have been Henry’s teammate since our earliest days.” noted Jake Crampton, MedSpeed CEO and founder.
Henry shows up, stays the course and helps us deliver healthcare—every single day. Shannon Clark, a general manager in Elmhurst, said, “I’ve been lucky to work with Henry for 7 of his 25 years here at MedSpeed. He’s the kind of person you can always count on; he knows his route inside and out, is always dependable, and is always the first to step up when help is needed. Henry is a hardworking and positive presence on our team. He truly sets the standard for what it means to be a MedSpeeder day in and day out. Henry has made a lasting impact on MedSpeed and our clients throughout the last 25 years, and I’m so grateful to be on his team!”
Over two decades of dedication is no small feat—Henry’s commitment stands as an inspiring example of what it means to be part of something bigger than yourself. Thank you, Henry!
