My clinical service responsibilities are in hematopathology, where I sign out molecular hematopathology, lymph node/bone marrow cases and flow cytometric evaluation for blood related disorders. My other clinical service responsibilities are in the Red Blood Cell Laboratory/Special Genetics Laboratory at ARUP, where I am the Co Medical Director. In this capacity, I am involved in review of patient test results, case sign out, review of quality control and quality assurance data, proficiency testing, and other clinical and administrative laboratory-related activities. I also provide consultation with clinical colleagues both locally and nationally in the area of hemoglobinopathies. My goal is to provide physicians with high quality test results and to give them my consultative expertise. In the area of teaching, I act as the director for the hemoglobinopathy/ thalassemia and benign red blood cell disorders rotation for hematopathology fellows.
