Geisinger’s Dickson City cancer center makes care more accessible for people in Lackawanna and surrounding counties while providing new patient services.

Pennsylvania's Department of Health is evaluating cancer data in the area surrounding the former manufacturing plant in Lackawanna County that operated over decades as Specialty Records, WEA Manufacturing, and Cinram.

Outgoing Congressman Matt Cartwright calls on Pennsylvania’s Department of Health to conduct an investigation into a now closed Olyphant plant that may have caused a cancer cluster.

Geisinger representatives confirmed that the cancer center coming to Dickson City is on track to open in June 2025.
