Follow your Path: Professional and Communication (Leilani Valdes)
We talked to Dr. Leilani Valdes, a community pathologist in Victoria, Texas, who is a second-generation pathologist, about her life journey (she started off in marketing after college, did not want to travel so much), ending up liking pathology in second year of med school (because she liked solving problems and help other medical professional solve problems), why she chose community pathology (the ability to solve multiple problems at the same time, instead of being super-specialized), her involvement in organized medicine and her focus on professionalism for trainees.
