Staff
The Technical Team
The Pathology technical team at the Royal Veterinary College is both dedicated and experienced across the wide range of pathology disciplines. It has considerable depth of technical expertise in:
- haematology
- biochemistry
- endocrinology
- serology
- microbiology
- histology
- parasitology
Specialist services in exotic, zoo and wildlife have been
established whilst forensic pathology cases are welcomed.
Furthermore, there is seamless integration between the professional
anatomic and clinical pathologists and the technical
team; this special partnership
places The Royal Veterinary College Pathology Service at the leading edge
for diagnostic quality and interpretation. The team is engaged
in establishing
a friendly and immediate
response to all clients; they are aware of the importance
of rapid response times with quality reports. There is also a dedicated secretarial liaison with
customers (Roz Douthwaite) and key technical contacts
are available
for consultation,
when necessary
(Sue Rodway, Laboratory Manager and Roger Bishop,
Chief Technician).
