Thanks to the generosity of the Nesson family, the BWH Ambulatory II Building has been named the H. Richard Nesson Ambulatory Care Center. Surrounded by friends and colleagues, Nesson’s wife, Lois, and her family listened to tributes to the late H. Richard Nesson, MD, at the Naming Ceremony held on Friday, September 8.
Following the ceremony, Mayor Thomas Menino, Senator Edward Kennedy, Susan, Ted, Sara and Lois Nesson and Jeff Otten stand in front of the new signage at BWH’s 45 Francis Street entrance.
Nesson was the president of BWH from 1982 to 1997 and vice president of Ambulatory and Community Health from 1979 to 1982.
