"Geisinger to me is a one stop medical facility providing all the necessary medical components in professional sports today."
As the official Medical and Sports Medicine Provider for the Wilkes-Barre Scranton Pioneers, Geisinger will provide a team of sports medicine physicians, surgeons, athletic trainers and healthcare professionals for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the Pioneer's sports injuries.
