Wentworth-Douglass Hospital Pathology and Laboratory Services Departments are fully accredited by the College of American Pathologists. Advanced medical equipment is used to provide services in multiple disciplines including anatomic pathology, microbiology, chemistry, hematology, transfusion and information systems.
