Pathology
WellAve’s Patient-Centered Pathology
WellAve Dermatology is proud to introduce our new in-house pathology services in partnership with AnaPath Laboratories. This enhancement allows us to offer quicker, more personalized diagnostic results, significantly improving patient care.
Currently, patient tissue samples are sent to a third-party lab for diagnosis. With the introduction of WellAve's pathology lab services, specimens will now be processed in collaboration with AnaPath, which prepares the slides. Our in-house dermatopathologist, Dr. Ilene Bayer-Garner will then review the samples, ensuring personalized and direct communication with WellAve providers.

Results are provided within 48 hours, offering peace of mind compared to the previous 2-week turnaround.
Personalized Care
With a dermatopathologist dedicated to WellAve, providers and pathologists can communicate directly to discuss patient cases for more accurate diagnosis and better patient outcomes.
No Additional Cost
The service will not increase costs for patients, as we have ensured that Dr. Gardner is credentialed with all of our accepted insurance plans.
Local Partnership
The collaboration with AnaPath, located just 15 minutes from our Annapolis office, ensures that specimens are handled with care and efficiency.
This service reinforces WellAve Dermatology's patient-centric approach, improving time-to-diagnosis while maintaining high standards of care. The quicker turnaround and direct access to specialized expertise will enhance patient confidence and satisfaction.
