Dermatopathology

Because different skin conditions require specific treatments, quick and accurate diagnosis is important to your care. In some cases, it is necessary to perform laboratory testing to confirm the nature of a skin condition. In these cases, a dermatopathologist reviews samples on a microscopic or molecular level to determine exactly what you’re facing. 

At ColumbiaDoctors, our dermatopathologists are experts in examining and interpreting a wide range of diagnostic tests to ensure an accurate diagnosis. Physicians from across the tri-state area trust ColumbiaDoctors to provide reliable results as quickly as possible. Under the direction of Dr. Alejandro Gru and his team of board-certified dermatopathologists, the dermatopathology laboratory processes over 120,000 specimens per year. We offer state-of-the-art advanced diagnostics, including immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, immunofluorescence, and sequencing, in collaboration with our partners in Surgical Pathology, to provide physicians and patients with critical information to guide treatment decisions.
