LifeLabs Ontario Medical Director Update

Staff Changes in Anatomic Pathology

Dr. Terry Colgan and Dr. Mona Kamel have joined the Medical-Scientific staff at LifeLabs. Dr. Colgan will be the Discipline Head for the Histology laboratory, while
Dr. Kamel will assume the same role in Cytology. They will both play a significant role in the Quality Assurance program in Anatomic Pathology. This will also allow for changes to take place in our delivery of Gynecological Surgical Pathology. Effective November 13. 2017, we will be moving to a model where only trained Gynecological pathologists will be reporting our gynecological surgical pathology. This specialty is evolving quickly and we feel that this will provide a higher level of quality in the reporting of this branch of pathology.
