What is a Pathologist?

What is a Pathologist? https://www.umhs-sk.org/blog/how-to-become-a-pathologist#definition A Pathologist is a licensed Physician with a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) or Doctor of Osteopathy (D.O.) degree that examines bodies, body tissues, and body fluids as an integral part of their medical career. They play a crucial part in many treatment plans by making diagnoses through either performing or overseeing laboratory testing of blood and tissue samples. A pathologist must complete education in medical school as well as at least three years of advanced medical training in a residency program. The majority of Pathologists, 80%, choose to study both clinical and anatomical pathology in their residency programs which take four years to complete. After residency is completed, pathologists are eligible to take board certification examinations administered by either the American Board of Pathology or the American Osteopathic Board of Pathology.
