Pathology Associates works to maintain a culture of excellence.

Our goal is to issue clinically helpful reports, for example comparing and correlating case findings with relevant prior accessions from the patient. We provide direct access to a Pathologist at any time, and we are pleased to discuss any aspects of a specific case with referri...ng Physicians. We maintain contacts with internationally respected consultants and refer cases to them, on our own initiative, when prudent. The all-important Anatomic Pathology Laboratory supporting us and directed by us, is accredited by the College of American Pathologists, and has been for many years.
