Description
The histopathology workload of about 20000 requests is diverse and typical of a District General Hospital.

It includes a broad range of specimens, including endoscopic and needle biopsies and an array of surgical biopsies generated by the out-patient, day-care units and in-patient facilities of the Trust and by general practices.

There are a high proportion of resection specimens particularly in regard to breast surgery, lower gastro-intestinal surgery, urology and gynaecology.

Radical surgery for some cancer types has been centralised in Leeds or Bradford (upper gastrointestinal cancer, radical pelvic surgery for urological and gynaecological cancers and head and neck cancer).


Airedale NHS Foundation Trust is anaward winning integrated Trust(consistently in the top 10 nationally for quality of care), set in a beautiful location extending from the Pennines in the south, to the upland hills and valleys of the Yorkshire Dales National Park in the north, providing genuine opportunities for a great work-life balance.


We provide high quality, personalised, acute, elective, specialist and community care for a population of over 250,000 people across West and North Yorkshire and East Lancashire in an area extending from the fringes of north Bradford to parts of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Our main hospital, which is Airedale General Hospital, is situated in the countryside between Skipton and Keighley.

We also provide services from community hospitals Coronation Hospital in Ilkley and Skipton Hospital - as well as local health centres and General Practices (GPs).
