The Division of Anatomic Pathology is a high-volume complex surgical pathology practice. Fellows are expected to enter the year with a strong general background in diagnostic pathology, and to emerge from it as polished attending pathologists who can quickly adapt to the role of and competently perform as junior staff in either a community or academic setting, or enter into and excel at further subspecialty fellowship training. The medical center has many sources of excellent surgical pathology material, including the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Center, breast, prostate, ovarian and colorectal cancer centers, Inflammatory Bowel Disease Center and active world-renown surgeons in many other areas.
