Who are Pathologists?
Pathologists are specialist doctors.They carry out tests on blood and tissues at the request of a doctor or surgeon. These samples are examined to help diagnose an illness, or monitor treatments.
Pathologists provide the results to your doctor, and so they play a vital role in providing patient care.
