Patrick Godbey
The Power List 2021 – In the Spotlight
Patrick is CEO of Southeastern Pathology Associates and President of the College of American Pathologists. For years, he has been an outspoken advocate for medical laboratories and has championed the vital role pathologists and laboratory professionals play in the fight against COVID-19 and beyond. His initial interest in pathology came during his OB/GYN residency, during which he arranged a lab rotation. “After just a few days, I remember thinking ‘Where has this been? This is great!’” If he had not found his calling in the lab, he believes he would still be practicing OB/GYN.
