More/Other Information:
Pathologists are physicians who specialize in laboratory medicine. They are experts in the use of laboratory procedures to diagnose and treat disease. A pathologist assists physicians in determining what medical problems their patients may have or what further procedures may need to be performed in order to make that determination. The pathologist may also help a patient’s doctor in deciding how a condition can best be treated.
