Department Of Medical Microbiology: Bacteriology, Mycology & Parasitology
Our laboratories are based at Kings College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. We provide an extensive clinical microbiology service, including infection control services and specialist advice in microbiology, virology, parasitology and mycology to hospitals and General Practitioners. The Medical Microbiology department (Bacteriology, Mycology and Parasitology) is located on the first, second and third floor of the Cheyne (Pathology) wing at King’s College Hospital.
Epidemiological data are provided for the Communicable Disease Surveillance Centre in Colindale. Outbreaks of infectious disease are investigated in conjunction with the Consultants in Communicable Disease Control.
All our laboratories are accredited by the Clinical Pathology Accreditation (CPA) scheme and participate in National Quality Assurance Schemes.
We have recently joined the KingsPath team having previously been the HPA London Regional Laboratory, and along with our other colleagues have entered into a new and exciting joint venture with GSTS Pathology who provide pathology services at Guy’s & St Thomas’ NHS FT, and are preferred partners for the KingsPath Partners Academic Health Science Centre.
