Luther Kloth

Activities in Latin America and Asia
Professor Kloth has been honored by invitations to present educational
seminars related to wound healing to physical therapists, nurses and physicians
in South American, Caribbean and Asian countries. His primary objective
in presenting these seminars is to provide up-to-date and clinically useful
information on wound management to health care providers through lectures,
demonstrations, participation in patient rounds and hands on experience.
His goal is to enable care-givers to provide better wound care for their
patients.
Individuals who represent professional health care organizations and facilities
who recognize that their health-care professionals could improve the care
of people with chronic wounds through education, may contact Professor
Kloth at: Luther.Kloth@Marquette.edu
to obtain more information on wound management seminars.
