The ability to diagnose illnesses without ever seeing the patient—simply by studying tissues and cells—never fails to amaze me. Each slide tells a story, and every diagnosis reminds me of the impact our work has on patient care.This “wow” factor is what drives me every day. It motivates me to keep learning, keep questioning, and keep growing as a pathologist. The blend of science, precision, and responsibility inspires me to pursue this field with even more dedication and passion
