Pathologists’ Assistants

Pathology Associates of Albuquerque’s staff also includes four highly qualified and exceptional pathologists’ assistants (PAs). They play an active and vital role in the provision of pathology services throughout New Mexico. Peter Appenzeller, M.D. oversees this section of our practice.
