Geisinger Careworks Opens in Pottsville

A new Geisinger Careworks urgent care location opened Tuesday in Schuylkill County, offering patient-friendly and convenient care closer to home. 

The facility is located at 529 Terry Reiley Way, inside the Geisinger Pottsville clinic.

“Our new location is designed to be there when you need it the most,” said Richard Martin, MD, medical director at Geisinger Careworks. “Open evenings and weekends, patients can use online check-in to hold their place in line or just walk in for issues like cold and flu symptoms, allergies, earaches, sprains and minor cuts.”

The Pottsville Careworks will be open Tuesday through Friday from 12:30 to 8 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Careworks is staffed with advanced practitioners who treat patients 1 year of age and older. This location provides patients convenient access to additional care, including laboratory, X-ray, cardiac and Geisinger CareSite Pharmacy services.


Careworks Urgent Care locations are the best place to go for minor health issues that can be resolved in a single visit. Treating a sprained ankle and a rash to having a tick removed and evaluating infections of the sinuses, ears, urinary tract and respiratory system are examples of issues specialists treat at Geisinger urgent care clinics.
