Karen J. Luethy, PA -C
“I am fortunate to be a part of a team that can improve a patient’s quality of life by alleviating their pain and restoring function through conservative care or surgery. Working with Dr. Szczukowski in the office or assisting in surgery, while easing a patient’s concerns and making sure they are comfortable with the plan of care is the best part for me.”
