13d•Onsite

About The Position

PathGroup is seeking a Board-Certified or Board-Eligible AP/CP Pathologist with fellowship training or expertise in Cytopathology to join its established practice in Brunswick, Georgia. The role combines non-gynecologic cytopathology and general surgical pathology, with subspecialty support, light call, and an outpatient-focused practice. J-1 and H-1B visa sponsorship is available. The typical daily case mix is approximately 6–12 non-gynecologic cytology cases and 10–15 surgical pathology cases. Cytology includes bronchoscopy, thyroid, urine, and other non-GYN specimens; there are no Pap smear or gynecologic cytology responsibilities. Surgical pathology primarily involves GI, breast, gynecologic, and other outpatient biopsies, with occasional colon and breast resection specimens. Specimen types can be tailored to the pathologist’s capabilities and interests. The practice is primarily outpatient, with occasional coverage at a local hospital 10–15 minutes from the laboratory. Hospital coverage includes Rapid On-Site Evaluation (ROSE) and frozen section interpretation. Dedicated staff prepare ROSE slides and assist with frozen-section cutting in, and experienced Pathologists’ Assistants perform all routine grossing. Subspecialty support includes dedicated Hematopathology and GU Pathology teams, with consultative coverage across major organ systems. Home call is approximately every six weeks, primarily remote; being called into the hospital occurs about once per year. PathGroup describes itself as the largest independent private pathology group in the U.S. and a physician-led organization. The position offers collaboration with a network of pathologists, investment in digital pathology and advanced diagnostic technologies, and opportunities for mentorship, leadership development, and subspecialty collaboration. The location offers access to coastal recreation and the Golden Isles, including boating, beaches, golf, and outdoor activities.
