Geisinger Health System is a tertiary care center and a major referral center in eastern/northeastern Pennsylvania. The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology provides care for the complete range of obstetrical and gynecological conditions, including some of the region’s most complicated obstetrical and gynecological cases. As such, the department provides opportunities for medical students to experience and participate in the care of women with a variety of conditions, including normal and high risk pregnancies, well woman care, urinary and pelvic floor dysfunction, infertility, gynecologic preinvasive disease and cancer, benign gynecologic neoplasms, menopause, and gynecologic bleeding abnormalities.

The department provides family-centered obstetrics care throughout normal pregnancies and deliveries. A team of obstetricians, perinatologists, and neonatologists provides high-risk obstetric care. Our commitment is to provide expert care for both the short-stay mother and baby after a normal delivery and the high-risk mother and critically ill baby

For women with gynecological cancer, evaluation and care is directed by our gynecologic oncologist, in the division of gynecologic oncology. This includes initial evaluation, surgery, radiation oncology and chemotherapy.

The division of reproductive endocrinology & infertility provides a full range of services and supports a fellowship. In-vitro fertilization and other assisted reproductive technologies are available. 

The maternal-fetal medicine division provides inpatient and outpatient consultation and management for high-risk conditions of pregnancy. Medical students are exposed to techniques of antenatal diagnosis and comprehensive ultrasound and will participate in the evaluation of patients in the office and hospital.

Our division of urogynecology offers evaluation and treatment of female pelvic floor disorders, pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, and many other conditions. Medical students are exposed to medical and surgical techniques for management of these problems.
