Physician Assistant Lynn Szabo has 30 years behind the stethoscope, much of that time spent serving the healthcare needs of our northern California rural community. She has a unique perspective on the issues facing women, the homeless, the poor - basically anybody who has ever felt powerless or voiceless when faced with a pressing healthcare need. Lynn has been host of Health Matters, along with Paul Critz, since its inception in 2019.
