As I've said in previous posts, I'm not going to medical school, but instead starting a Medical Laboratory Technology (Associate's) degree at a CC. But then I started think about pathology. I don't know why but it seems really tempting to look into it. Does a pathologist have minimal patient contact? I'm not a people person but really don't mind being around people sometimes. Do pathologists do work that's similar to CLS? In other words, I was pretty (99%) sure I'd never go to medical school, but now pathology sounds really interesting. Of course, there is this thread, which worries me: http://forums.studentdoctor.net/threads/no-jobs-in-pathology.1185558/o What do you all think? Has anyone here started out as MLT/CLS then became a pathologist? Is the work similar or different?
