“Most patients instinctively know what’s wrong with them. My job is to listen and help articulate what their bodies are already telling them,” Dr. Geissinger said.

When he’s not in the office, you can find Dr. Geissinger on the Eastern Shore with his wife and two Golden Doodles, enjoying what nature has to offer.
