We work to strengthen diagnostic systems and support laboratory professionals because diagnosis is the foundation of effective care and public health.

Access to diagnostics isn’t equal.
And that impacts how quickly diseases are detected, treated, and tracked.
Public health is only as strong as the systems behind it.
If you’d like to learn more about our work or ways to get involved visit our website:

Progress happens when we take action to close the gaps in diagnostics. For over 30 years, PO has worked to strengthen systems through training and quality assurance.
Our works supports earlier detection and stronger health systems.

Public health works best when systems and partnerships are strong.
Strengthening labs means strengthening the systems that prepare communities for better health.
We’re SET to keep doing this work together.
#NPHW #PublicHealth #GlobalHealth #HealthSystems
At Pathologists Overseas, we see every day how strong diagnostic systems support stronger public health.
We’re READY to recognize the role laboratories play in keeping communities healthy.

#NPHW invites all Americans to renew their commitment to strengthening the systems, science & community partnerships that keep us healthy. Public health lives in our environments: the air we breathe, water we drink, sidewalks we walk and parks we enjoy. https://app.sosha.ai/s/zYrzyqky
You can’t respond to what you can’t measure.
Lab testing is what makes disease detection, outbreak tracking, and public health response possible.
Every test result contributes to a bigger picture.
That’s how public health works.

Happy National Public Health Week 💙
We want to start the week off with a thank you to laboratory professionals!
Your work helps detect disease, guide treatment, and support public health decisions every day.
It might not always be visible everyday but it’s essential!
We’re proud to welcome a new laboratory in Cameroon to our EQA program.
The Biochemistry Lab at Yaoundé University Teaching Hospital is committed to improving the accuracy of test results and supporting better patient care.
Quality in the lab matters.

#PathSky
Accurate results start with strong systems. Through our partnership with Comp Pro Med we donate Laboratory Information Systems to labs in low resource settings. We also provide training and support that helps labs deliver reliable results. #StrongLabsSaveLives #HealthEquity #globalhealth #pathsky
EQA results are not just numbers. Labs in our program used their data to advocate for equipment upgrades, review service contracts and address infrastructure gaps. #EQA #ClinicalChemistry #PublicHealth #GlobalHealth #Pathsky
How do labs ensure their test results are trustworthy?
EQA helps labs compare results, find gaps, and improve processes. This leads to more accurate diagnoses and better patient care. #GlobalHealth #PathSky #Africa #Labs #Publichealth
The real impact often happens behind the scenes. Building reliable internal systems allows us to better support our labs and partners.
