NORTH KINGSTOWN, R.I., April 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Dominion Diagnostics, a leading national provider of clinical drug testing and medication monitoring services, is uniting with other donors in the business community to raise funds for the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings.

This week Dominion Diagnostics will observe National Medical Laboratory Professionals Week (NMLPW) sponsored by the American Society for Clinical Pathology along with its staff of more than 200 laboratory and administrative professionals. Dominion's management team appreciates the opportunity to demonstrate the Company's important role within the health care services industry and surrounding communities.
