About me
My interest in pathology started in medical school. The study of diseases fascinates me, and I enjoy the challenge of understanding human illness.
The role of diagnostic pathology is important in every part of managing a patient's care. Test results we provide can affect diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. I enjoy working with other members of the care team in determining the best course of action for each patient. Working through a case is like solving a difficult puzzle. Making an accurate diagnosis for a patient is gratifying.
