About Us
At Specialty Vetpath, we are dedicated to providing high-quality veterinary pathology services that prioritize the well-being and understanding of your patients. Founded in 2009 by Dr. Jennifer Ward and her husband Rod Vos, our journey began in a basement laboratory, which eventually grew into a shared space in a local specialty hospital and then to our current location in the Interbay neighborhood of Seattle.
Our mission is built on the foundation of collaborative relationships and a deep respect for all animals. We believe that each sample submitted to us is an extension of the patient, deserving of meticulous care and attention. Our team of veterinary pathologists and technicians work tirelessly to ensure that every diagnosis is accurate and timely, while also taking the time to do things right.
We offer a comprehensive range of services, including general surgical pathology, cytopathology, dermatopathology, ocular pathology, and oncopathology. Our collaborative research program is designed to support and meet your research goals by providing best-in-class pathology and histology services. We also offer immunohistochemistry, immunocytochemistry, and histology support, tailored to meet the unique needs of each investigator.
Our commitment to excellence is reflected in our team of experienced pathologists and technicians. We pride ourselves on building lasting relationships with our clients, grounded in shared love and respect for all animals. Our approach is not just about providing diagnostic services but also about enhancing personal and collective knowledge within the veterinary community.
