Dr. Tim Stover is out at Cleveland Clinic Akron General -- his "immediate retirement" announced yesterday after a day of group meetings. Stover said in a statement he was grateful for the opportunity. He was expected to remain the CEO through 2017 and was a key figure in steering the deal with Cleveland Clinic. The Clinic's regional chief of operations, Janice Murphy, will serve as acting president.

Stover signed a three-year contract in December 2014 that would have kept him at the helm through 2017. A spokesperson for Akron General told Crain's Cleveland Business via a text message the departure as "not a surprise." In a statement, Stover said "I am very grateful for having had the opportunity to work for such an exceptional organization as Akron General and wish to thank the employees, my leadership team, all Board members and the Akron community for such incredible support over the years to make Akron General what it is today."
