Medical Laboratory Professionals Week, April 21- 27, 2019, is an annual celebration of medical laboratory professionals and pathologists who play a vital role in health care and patient advocacy! Laboratory Heroes Save Lives

Medical professionals safeguard patient and public health by reducing diagnostic errors and preparing for disease outbreaks and health threats. These laboratory heroes conduct approximately 11 billion laboratory tests annually, and 70 percent of medical decisions depend on laboratory tests—emphasizing the importance of clinical laboratories in the healthcare industry. Safety, quality, and cost effectiveness in laboratory testing are imperative as the public relies extensively on laboratories for accurate and efficient diagnosis and treatment of diseases.

Winston Medical Center wants to thank all of our Laboratory staff! This week, we will be spotlighting our Laboratory staff on our social media.
