Janis Atkinson, MD, anatomic and clinical pathologist at North Shore Pathology Consultants, and affiliated with Presence Saint Francis Hospital, has been named a 2016 Top Doctor in Evanston, Illinois. Top Doctor Awards is dedicated to selecting and honoring those healthcare practitioners who have demonstrated clinical excellence while delivering the highest standards of patient care.
Dr. Janis Atkinson is a highly experienced pathologist who has been in practice for nearly 30 years. Her career in medicine started in 1986, when she graduated from the Rush Medical College of Rush University in Chicago. This was followed by an internship at the Northwest Memorial Hospital, which was in turn succeeded by a residency at the same hospital that was completed in 1992.
The depth of Dr. Atkinson’s expertise is demonstrated by the fact that she is board certified in three distinct areas: Anatomic & Clinical Pathology, Pathology Recertification, and Cytopathology. This is an area of medicine where cells from various parts of the body are examined to find the cause and nature of a particular disease, and has become a major weapon in the fight against cervical cancer among other conditions.
Anatomic and clinical pathology is a fast moving and ever evolving field of medicine, and Dr. Atkinson always keeps up with the latest developments and technological advances. She is known for her caring attitude, and her willingness to help less experienced colleagues. This excellent attitude, and her wealth of experience at the top of her profession, makes Dr. Janis Atkinson a very deserving winner of a 2016 Top Doctor Award.
