Work Environment
The offices, hospitals, morgues, and laboratories of most pathologists are well equipped, attractive, well lighted, and well ventilated. Although pathologists do not have much direct patient contact, they do interact with physicians and clinical staff. In addition to their medical duties, pathologists who are self-employed or who are in a small group practice must focus on business aspects such as paperwork, supervising staff, and marketing their services.
