What is a pathologist?

Pathologists are the unsung heroes of the health care industry. Through careful study of body tissue and fluids, pathologists provide data that helps your doctor reach an accurate diagnosis.

Additionally, pathologists offer ongoing intel for patients dealing with chronic health issues. Through lab tests and careful examination, they'll monitor slight changes in your body tissue or fluid, then report that information to your doctor.

Genetic testing, autopsies and biopsies also fall under their general list of duties.
