Additional specific subspecialty areas are welcome. The pathology footprint at Fort Wayne will also include a full-time clinical pathologist who will be the CLIA holder, a pathologist's assistant, and a cytologist.

The hospital will bring a broad range of services, including emergency, surgical, and specialty care, closer to home for individuals and families in the region. Information on this investment into Fort Wayne's future can be found at: New IU Health Fort Wayne Hospital | Project Updates .
