Our Staff

We are on your team.

Pathologists are a valuable and integral part of your medical team.

Pathologists are often referred to as the doctor’s doctor.  Pathologists are “behind the scenes” and mainly interact with the doctor that orders your pathology and laboratory tests. Pathologists examine body fluids, tissue, organs, etc., and then render a diagnosis that will guide your physician to a course of treatment for you.
