Rezilient Health

Rezilient Health was our first investment over 2.5 years ago. At the time they had 1 clinic in St. Louis and less than 12 employees. So it was gratifying, humbling, and exciting for Managing Partner Rob Panepinto to participate at Rezilient’s first Customer and Partner Summit in front of now 60+ employees and their key clients. Rezilient has grown to clinics in 3 states with rapid expansion into several new markets in 2026. We are proud to partner with Danish Nagda, Jeff Gamble, PhD, our co investors and the Rezilient team and can’t wait to see where this team goes next! Jonathan Kilman, 1858 Capital Partners
