Workshop: Understanding Your Pathology Report
Join us for an empowering workshop, “Understanding Your Pathology Report,” led by expert pathologist Dr. Jason Wasserman. This interactive session will walk you through each section of your pathology report, explaining essential terms and findings in clear, patient-friendly language. Bring your own report to follow along and build confidence in understanding the details of your diagnosis. By the end, you'll be better equipped to engage in meaningful discussions with your care team and make informed decisions about your treatment.
