i understand there are anatomic and clinical pathologists. At least the first ones don't have as much patient contact as a clinician such as a pediatrician, internist, surgeon, etc. But correct me if i'm wrong, please.

no 24 hour wards..hmmm..in pathology, most "on-call" residents take calls from Home.
