You are right. Thank you for the fine job you do for all..... It is not often if any that Pathologists are rarely thanked and very much overlooked. My Pathologist was excellent and a key factor in the types of decisions I needed to make . He was extremely informative. Happy holidays to you and keep up the great work and excellent postings.

thats how i got my understanding of how important a role the 'PATHOLOGIST' plays.
After my third and fourth lumptectomy and my results were still not clear, (surgical margin) on one side. I was like what kind of surgeon can't clear it after four shots!!
