"An endocrinologist is a physician who specializes in diagnosing and managing hormone imbalances – diseases that affect your glands. This can include many conditions related to obesity such as diabetes, lipid disorders and thyroid disease. Dr. Geamanu believes in partnering with patients to first fully educate them about hormone imbalances and diseases caused by obesity, and then to develop individualized treatments plans that may include diet, exercise and prescribed medications when appropriate. “Obesity is our greatest health concern,” says Dr. Geamanu. “My goal is to help educate patients about how to prevent obesity through diet and exercise. Prevention is the key to success.”"

" Susan really likes to get to know each patient as an individual and feels that she is good at talking with patients, putting them at ease so they can tell her about their concerns, and helping them to make informed decisions about their gynecological and obstetric care. She has a holistic and detailed approach to patients and enjoys working with them as a teammate to improve health. Susan’s goals include doing quick yet thorough Pap and pelvic exams. She enjoys performing procedures and tries her best to decrease pain during them. These include IUD and Nexplanon insertion and removal, endometrial and vulvar biopsies, and colposcopy. Susan also loves midwifery’s emphasis on educating women and reassuring them about normal changes related to pregnancy while carefully screening them in case a problem occurs."
