Diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis In 1999, she prayed first. Having listened for months to Health Talk a Second Opinion on KPRZ, she became a patient at the comprehensive medical center and her journey began. Diane’s first doctors were Dr. Nelson, Dr. Bill Kellas and Dr. Mark LaBeau. Today she is well with no symptoms and no medication being used in the process. Diane is grateful for the knowledge and strengths of all the practitioners as they determine the root cause of health issues. She also cohosted the radio show on KPRZ after she began working with the center.
Married to David Szuch, together they have six adult children, ten grandchildren and six great grandchildren. Along with the above passions, Diane enjoys writing, reading, researching, cooking, organic gardening and is ever grateful for time with family, close friends and her “rescued” dogs and cats.
