With over 28 years dedicated to medicine, Geenens brings a wealth of knowledge to his industry and, in particular, to his area of expertise, adult and child psychiatry. When asked about what give his work meaning, Geenens said:
"If my patients are happy with me that tells me I'm doing a good job. My primary objective is to make sure my patients are happy with the care I offer."

Over the course of his career as a psychiatrist, Dr. Geenens has seen many trends come and go. In 2008, he decided to stop accepting insurance in order to provide better care to his patients. He noted:
"I pay attention to trends in insurance and managed care. I'm not a part of it and I'm glad I'm not a part of it, but I try to maintain a very individualized approach because I don't have to answer to somebody else. I'm kind of an outlier...because I don't want somebody or some institution interfering with what the patient and I decide is best for them. I am more concerned with my patients’ needs. If somebody needs to see me for three hours, for example, I don't have somebody telling me that they can't."
Dr. Geenens currently runs a thriving psychiatric practice, Greater Than One, based in Leawood, Kansas in the Kansas City area. There, he focuses on a variety of psychiatric and mental health issues, including addiction and behavioral management, weight-loss, and mindfulness.
