Department of Pathology
For me, the National University Hospital , Department of Pathology, offers a unique experience of training with room for development on all three fronts: 1. Diagnostic work, 2. Research and 3. Academic teaching. We have many rich sources of learning material from across all the various subspecialties of surgery and disciplines like Obstetrics & Gynecology and Paediatrics. We also regularly receive interesting learning material from overseas referrals around the region.
The department has many consultants with their own subspecialty interest, providing both accurate diagnoses for the patients and giving valuable teaching to the trainees in their area of expertise. The consultants are generally approachable and never far away to give advice on any issues, be it work or non-work related.
All trainees are also given their own working station, individual computer and microscope for working purposes. The department has a well stocked library with references on all pathological conditions. We have a robust structured teaching program to cater for trainees in different levels of training. Our support staffs are also hardworking, friendly and approachable.
In summary, the department has provided me a conducive environment to train and fulfill all my career aspirations and potential.
