GALA Histology Lab, the first of two physician-owned laboratories under the GALA umbrella, got its start in 2007 when a team of enterprising Gastroenterologists decided to take control of their histology needs by partnering together to open their very own histology laboratory. Since opening its doors over ten years ago, GALA Histology Lab has become a leader in the GI histology market, providing superior, high quality pathology services to its customers. Reflecting a physician partnership that has grown beyond the Gl market into other areas of medicine, the GALA partners expanded their focus to include GYN cytology, opening doors to its second laboratory, GALA Cytology Lab, in January of 2017.
Modeled after the successful sister GALA Histology Lab, GALA Cytology Lab is a state-of-the-art laboratory featuring the latest technologies and a comprehensive test menu. In keeping with GALA Laboratories’ culture of excellence, GALA Cytology Lab maintains a sharp focus on clinical effectiveness and is committed to providing customers with the highest quality diagnostic testing, exemplary customer service and fast, accurate results.
At GALA Laboratories, our commitment to quality is at the core of everything we do. By employing the latest technologies and meeting the stringent quality control standards inherent to our lab process, GALA Laboratories team of highly qualified and credentialed laboratory professionals fulfill our promise of excellence by delivering accurate results you can depend on.
GALA Laboratories utilizes the most up to date technologies available to process your facilities pathology specimens. In our Histology department we process your specimens on the industry’s first choice for tissue processing the Tissue-Tek VIP 6 AI which provides exceptional reliability and innovation to ensure safe and high-quality processing. Immunohistochemistry requests are handled via our Leica Bond-Max which provides productivity excellence with precise automation to produce high-quality IHC and ISH slides.
Within our Cytology and Molecular departments, we utilize the Hologic ThinPrep Pap test which was the first liquid based Pap test FDA approved/cleared for HPV, Chlamydia/Gonorrhea and Trichomonas testing out of the same vial. Our Cytology and Molecular departments also operate the full Hologic suite of instruments that includes the ThinPrep 5000 Processor and Imager, the Panther and the Review Scope Manual Plus to produce consistent, high quality slide preparations and proven molecular results.
