Delighted that we have a great training survey result for Histopathology at bartshealth. Now the most popular and in demand attachment in London!

After a whole day of interviews we are absolutely delighted, thrilled, over-the-moon, and cock-a-hoop to have appointed four of our local trainees to substantive consultant posts today! Many congratulations, Harry Delaney, Justine Durno, Jafrin Alam and Divya Kriplani! 🥰

Clinico-pathological characteristics of POLE-mutated endometrial carcinoma: A tertiary cancer centre experience #HilaryBuckleyAward #BAGP2025

Most requested teaching centre in London in this year’s residency scheme and 91 applications for two Locum for Service posts. Must be doing something right….

It’s the Thames Deanery endocrine study day for our residents: with great contributions from @donuts85 and a big thank you to @DrJuhlin for a superb lecture on the adrenal.

We had our Christmas Quiz this lunchtime! The Chris Brown award for a trainee went this year to Ausra Suchodolskyte : many congratulations!

Huge congratulations to Ben Challoner, @DrJussieDee, and @donuts85 who all passed the FRCpath part 2 exam today. They have all had very different journeys into and through pathology and had other hurdles, but we are so proud of all of you!!

Admin roles are essential to run our services. Pathology administrators and secretaries do a tremendous job and we would be lost and unable to function without them. The knee jerk response of ‘less admin’ will make doctors and BMS staff have to divert their skills needlessly.

So sorry to say goodbye to our rock, the amazing gynae pathologist and ex -TPD, Asma Faruqi, who after holding the department together especially last year is now retiring. we will miss you so much! 😘😘💔

Delighted to appoint two of our long standing Trainees to locum posts today! Dr Divya Kriplani will be doing breast and Gynpath and Dr Harry Delaney will be doing GI Path. In the long tradition of our department appointing our own brightest and best.

A boost for Cellpath after @ChesserAlistair @NeilAshman9 @shanedegaris and other senior @NHSBartsHealth management came on a walk around this AM. Seeing and appreciating the ‘hands on’ nature of our work ( and a few juicy specimens!). Thank you for your time and support.

Weekly Black box as Prof Calaminici waxes lyrical on the minefield of cutaneous lymphomas.

And another! We are delighted to welcome Dr Duaa Saeed-Chesterman as a consultant, who will be specialising in Gynae Pathology.

Following yesterday’s appointment, this week we warmly welcomed Dr Jackie McDermott who is a very experienced gynae path consultant with a research and education background! We are so lucky to have her at @NHSBartsHealth ( and she is enjoying commuting by river from Putney!)

Delighted to say that we appointed Dr Ed Hookway today as a haempath consultant. We are very lucky to have Ed on board to support our supraspecialist regional work! #haempath @rajthur @tombutlerhaem1 @NHSBartsHealth @MariaCalaminici @abirenalpath @daniel_berney

Calling all UK histopathology trainees! We want to hear from you about your autopsy training. We want to hear from all - if you have opted out of autopsy training, are undecided, or are still autopsy active. Link: forms.office.com/pages/response…

Delighted that we made two excellent consultant gynae pathologist appointments on Friday and both have accepted! We hope to Keep Prof Naveena Singh’s legacy alive at @NHSBartsHealth

Farewell 2023! A record number of cases, >72500: 3% up! We have vacant posts and a need to expand. The opportunities are many with 2 interview panels in Jan and another 4 jobs in preparation! For amazing path and a friendly collegiate team, do join us at @NHSBartsHealth HNY!

We are so happy that 5 of our senior trainees passed the FRCPath part 2 exam today. Harry, Sadia, Christos, Ed and Nike. We are a proud department!
