Karen DeSalvo, MD, Google’s chief health officer, is retiring after five years in the role.

“It has been such an honor to be able to bring the full force of Google to the world of health. There is no other place to do that at the scale we can than at Google where hundreds of millions come to us every day in their most critical moments for information, insights and help along their health journey,” Dr. DeSalvo wrote in a May 2 LinkedIn post.

She said she would be handing “the baton” to Michael Howell, MD, Google’s chief clinical officer, and that Google Health would “continue uninterrupted” for its products, employees and partners.
