We were delighted that Dr Scott Arthur MP visited the pathology laboratories at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, NHS Lothian, to see first hand the amazing work that pathologists do. 

Dr Arthur, Labour MP for Edinburgh South West, visited the pathology department at the the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, NHS Lothian, to see first hand the work undertaken by the pathology and laboratory staff from across a range of pathology specialties.
