Our 4 year AP/CP residency program provides a balanced education in anatomic and clinical pathology and generates graduates of the highest quality. Our graduates have a high Board pass rate and obtain outstanding fellowships in their subspecialty of interest. Our caseload provides broad in-depth training and exposure to a wide spectrum of adult and pediatric pathology. Most importantly, residents work one-on-one with attending physicians on a daily basis; our faculty love to teach!
