Job Description: Endoscopic biopsies and polyps from the gastrointestinal tract collected at Gastro One’s endoscopy centers are processed within Gastro One’s pathology laboratory and evaluated by Gastro One pathologists for infectious diseases, non-infectious inflammatory disorders, neoplastic processes, and non-neoplastic mass/polypoid lesions. Each set of gastrointestinal specimens is accompanied by an endoscopy report to facilitate correlation of the histologic findings with the endoscopic findings and clinical history.
