Geisinger Expands Community Medicine in Lackawanna County

Geisinger is adding to its community medicine offerings for patients and members in Lackawanna County.

Geisinger Montage, located at 5 Lakeview Commons in Moosic, will provide primary care, ConvenientCare walk-in services, lab, and diagnostic imaging in one newly renovated facility.

The primary care clinic and diagnostic services are scheduled to welcome their first patients Monday, Dec. 16, with ConvenientCare slated to open in the first quarter of 2025. Geisinger will hold an open house from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 12, when members of the community and local media are welcome to tour.

Geisinger Montage features 28 primary care exam rooms and six ConvenientCare exam rooms in a 25,000-square-foot space that also serves as a training center for nurses and emergency medical services personnel in Geisinger’s northeast region.

“As programs mature, Geisinger Montage will be staffed by eight primary care physicians and four advanced practitioners, making primary care more available to our patients in northeastern Pennsylvania,” said Roger Scott, D.O., internal medicine specialist and director of community medicine in Geisinger’s northeast region.

Four more advanced practitioners will staff the ConvenientCare clinic when it opens.

Joining Dr. Scott, who is moving his practice to Geisinger Montage, for opening day will be internal medicine specialist Joseph Leo, D.O.; family medicine specialist Saima Mukta, D.O.; internal medicine specialist Michael Jalowiec, D.O., who is a new addition to the Geisinger team; certified physician assistants Thomas Nawrocki and Ripal Patel, and certified registered nurse practitioner Kelly Haikes.
