      Pathologist, neuropathologist

      My practice combines surgical neuropathology, general surgical pathology, autopsy neuropathology, teaching and laboratory administration. I examine approximately 500 adult and pediatric brain and spinal cord specimens a year, perform brain autopsies, and also evaluate general surgical pathology cases. As a member of the breast pathology team in my practice, my general surgical pathology cases include an enriched set of breast biopsies and excisional specimens. The balance of my professional time is spent in laboratory administration including test development and teaching. Show less
