The pathology services in Peterborough are currently provided on one site. Histopathology is based in the new Peterborough City Hospital and boasts excellent facilities.

The management structure in Peterborough complies with the Strategic Review of Pathology Services (paras 4.22 4.26).
The management structure of the new combined Trust is currently under review. All the pathology specialties in Peterborough have full UKAS accreditation. Peterborough was the first Trust in the country to be awarded ISO15189 accreditation across all pathology disciplines (May 2015).
