School Psychology Alum, Dr. Shelley Hosterman, Implements Integrated Health Care Model in Central PA

Sixteen-year-old Kyle* and his mother visited the Geisinger Health System primary-care clinic in Pottsville, Pennsylvania, last winter in search of treatment for Kyle's chronic acne. Toward the end of the visit, Kyle's mother told the doctor, William Gianfagna, MD, that Kyle seemed sad of late and uninterested in some of his favorite activities. Gianfagna spoke with Kyle for a few minutes and discovered he was depressed and even having suicidal thoughts.
