Pathology (laboratory services)

The London Clinic Pathology department provides the hospital with a comprehensive diagnostic service, using advanced techniques and fully computerised laboratories on a 24/7 basis. Each discipline is led by expert pathologists in their field and all procedures are performed by senior biomedical scientists registered with the Health Professions Council.

Our laboratories use a sophisticated quality-management system to ensure investigation procedures are performed to the highest possible standard. We fully participate in National External Quality Assurance Schemes (NEQAS) as well as strict internal quality assurance and audit programmes.
