Become a histopathologist
Whenever tissue is taken from a person’s body to be examined, a histopathologist is responsible for examining the sample and returning a diagnosis.
Career case studies

Dr Kavitha Pai, Trainee Histopathologist
I moved here from India three years ago. I had started my training there but wanted to do more in the UK as I wanted to train and work in the NHS.

Dr Rachel Brown, Histopathologist
My areas of interest are liver/pancreas and head and neck pathology so I might be looking at a liver removed at transplantation or a partial liver resection or pancreatic resection for tumour.
