My deepest condolences to Dr. Kuchemba's family, friends, and colleagues. I had the pleasure to work with doctor at Mercy Wilkes-Barre. He was also my physician for a long time. I will also be forever grateful for the care of my parents. I was in the office a few weeks ago and we always had good conversations not related to medical topics. He was not only an excellent physician he was an excellent medical educator which is a gift. He will be truly missed. Rest in peace Dr. Kuchemba.

My sincerest condolences to Dr Kuchemba's family. I've worked for Dr Kuchemba for the last 9 months and Dr Kuchemba was one of the most amicable doctors I've ever worked for. He was kind, pleasant, caring. He wanted the best for his patients as well as for his employees. He always had a warm smile and a hospitable disposition with staff at the office. His presence is deeply missed.
