Greeting,

I really am intrigued by pathology as a career option. However, I'm red-green color blind. My fiancee and I have discussed over and over again about my prospects as a pathologist. Please let me know what you think.

Thanks

FACT: The Director of surgical pathology at Stannfooorrrrd is color blind as well, dats why he has his own personal fellow just to interpret Congo Red stains for amyloid (apple green bifrigence and all that!). Cushy fellowship though. :laugh:

Sooo, not a problem.
