Our breast pathology services are an imperative component in early diagnosis and treatment of breast diseases. Our board certified pathologists have extensive experience interpreting all types of breast disorders, from surgical pathology to fine needle aspirations, in cases of early borderline disease to the most advanced cancer stage.

CYTOLOGY

We are a full-service laboratory providing screening and diagnostic testing on gynecological, non-gynecological, and fine needle aspiration specimens. We offer customized cytology reports like Hormonal Evaluation from vaginal specimens as well as Maturation Index.

In an attempt to help our clients we have the ability to detect the presence of several micro-organisms found in the vaginal canal responsible for infertility as well as vaginitis. Not only do we report what we find but we also rule out the presence of other common pathogenic organisms.

Additionally, we have the capability of processing the smallest skin samples using our specialized methodology  to capture any abnormalities.
