GOVERNOR APPOINTS DIANE GEORGESON TO SUNY ONEONTA COLLEGE COUNCIL

ONEONTA, N.Y. -- Governor David Paterson has announced the appointment of Oneonta physician Diane Georgeson, MD, PC, to the College Council of the SUNY College at Oneonta. Dr. Georgeson replaces Catherine D. Black, who had served on the Council since 1999.

Since 2003, Dr. Georgeson has operated a private practice in obstetrics and gynecology in Oneonta. She has served as medical director of Planned Parenthood of South Central New York since 2001.

Previously, Dr. Georgeson served as an attending physician at Albany Medical Center and with Bassett Healthcare in Cooperstown. From 1987 to 1999, she ran a private practice in Oregon after completing her residency and internship with the Oregon Health Services University Hospital.

Locally, she is a board member of the Future for Oneonta Foundation and a member of the City of Oneonta Centennial Committee. She served as President of the Medical Staff at A.O. Fox Hospital in 2008.

Dr. Georgeson completed her medical degree at the University of Vermont College of Medicine and earned her bachelor's degree from Bates College. She is a graduate of Oneonta High School and the Percy I. Bugbee School.

Each state-operated campus in the SUNY system has its own College Council. College Councils have specific statutory powers, such as naming buildings and making regulations regarding student conduct. The members of each council are appointed by the governor with the exception of the student representative, who is elected by the student body.
