The San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors honored Public Health Director Corwin Porter Tuesday for his 33 years of public service, 32 of them with San Bernardino County. Porter plans to retire March 27.
Porter has served as the director of the county Department of Public Health since May 2020. He previously served as assistant public health director and as chief of the department’s Environmental Health Services Division. He began working for the county part-time in 1987 while going to college. He worked for Riverside County for one year in 1990 and then returned to San Bernardino County in 1991.
Arrowhead Regional Medical Center Chief Operating Officer Andrew Goldfrach was appointed to serve as interim public health director upon Porter’s retirement. Goldfrach has been a key coordinator of the county’s successful COVID-19 vaccination program.
