Extra safety measures we're taking
Surgeries and procedures
We have reopened our hospitals and medical centers, making many non-urgent but medically necessary surgeries available once again.Our priority will always be the safety of our communities, and we will continue to get people the care that they need — just as we have been doing throughout the pandemic.
If my surgery was postponed, will someone contact me to reschedule?
We will contact people who meet the criteria for non-urgent procedures to notify them of their options and available appointments. If your condition has worsened, call your doctor.

We have reopened our clinics and doctors’ offices, making many in-person appointments available once again.Our priority will always be the safety of our communities, and we will continue to get people the care that they need — just as we have been doing throughout the pandemic.
While many of our Geisinger Convenient Care urgent care locations (formerly Careworks), primary care offices and pediatric offices remain open, we continue to encourage telemedicine virtual visits for routine, non-emergent care.
When will my appointment be rescheduled?
We have begun returning to normal operations at our clinics. To reschedule an appointment that was canceled or for any questions regarding your appointment, call 800-275-6401.
Can I make a new appointment?
Our doctors' offices, medical centers and hospitals are taking extra measures to keep you safe, from safely rearranged waiting rooms to masked and gloved providers — which means there's no better time to make your health a priority.
To make an appointment, give us a call at 800-275-6401. Our team will let you know if an in-person visit is available or if a telemedicine virtual visit is a better option.
