"My biopsy report was ready within two days and Dr. Sana sat with me and explained exactly what it meant. That conversation removed so much of my fear."
Dr. Sana Yousaf
Dr. Sana Yousaf leads the diagnostic laboratory at Consultants Clinic. With a decade of experience in histopathology and cytopathology, she is known for reports that are precise, prompt and clearly written — because treatment decisions depend on them.
Reports you can build a treatment plan on.
Dr. Sana Yousaf completed her MBBS and then trained in laboratory medicine, earning her FCPS in Histopathology. She spent several years as a senior registrar at a tertiary care centre, where she reported biopsy and cytology specimens across almost every specialty, before taking charge of the laboratory at Consultants Clinic.
Her special interests are histopathology and cytopathology — the disciplines that turn a tissue or cell sample into a definitive diagnosis. She oversees quality control across the clinic's laboratory, double-checks unusual findings before they are released, and is happy to sit with patients and explain exactly what a report means in plain language.
- Every report reviewed and signed off by a consultant pathologist
