In this episode, academic pathologist Edward Gutmann, MD, FCAP, speaks with Dean Joelson, MD, FCAP, a solo practitioner, about what it is like to practice pathology solo in a semi-rural area. They discuss the preparation needed to establish such a practice, the challenges and rewards of serving a community hospital alone, and how these experiences differ from group and academic settings.

Surprisingly, and for different reasons, both guests reject the long-held notion that pathologists are "the doctor’s doctor."

A byproduct of a chance encounter at the CAP's annual meeting, the conversation begins and ends with how the CAP supports pathologists across diverse practice environments.
