1915Founded by Abigail Geisinger
She told us to make her hospital right — and the best. We never stopped.
Geisinger began in 1915 when Abigail Geisinger, at age 85, refused to accept anything less than the best for her rural Pennsylvania community. “Make my hospital right,” she said. “Make it the best.” More than a century later, we're still fulfilling that promise.
Today, 28,000 of us — physicians, nurses, researchers, neighbors — care for 1.2 million people across 45 Pennsylvania counties. We have 10 hospitals and more than 130 care sites, the nationally ranked Geisinger Health Plan and the Geisinger College of Health Sciences training the next generation of caregivers. All working together as 1 team.
What does this mean for you? A century-plus promise to deliver the best healthcare available. Kept by 28,000 of your neighbors. Here in the communities we call home.
