A Note from Dr. Tzvieli

Colleagues:

I want to take a moment to share my gratitude for the opportunity to serve as interim CEO of Contra Costa Health for the past six months. It has been an honor to work alongside such a dedicated and compassionate team.

As you may have heard, the Board of Supervisors has appointed Dr. Grant Colfax as our new Health Director. Dr. Colfax brings a wealth of public health leadership experience, and I look forward to working with him as we continue our mission to provide safe, accessible, and high-quality care and services for all who live in Contra Costa County.

I will continue to serve as your county Health Officer and I intend to remain actively engaged in the work we are doing together, from advancing health equity to improving how we operate as a department. Our priorities and our commitment to the community remain unchanged.

Thank you for everything you do every day for the people who we serve. I am proud of the progress we have made together, and I am excited about the work still ahead.

With Deep Gratitude,

Ori Tzvieli, MD

Contra Costa County Health Officer
CEO and Health Director (Interim)
