LEXINGTON, Mass., Nov. 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- StrataDx, a leader in anatomic pathology, has named former LabCorp executive, Pat Noland, CEO. Since 1984, StrataDx has partnered with clinicians to provide the best care to patients through its high-quality pathology services in the dermatology, urology, podiatry, oral pathology, gastroenterology, and gynecology segments.
Mr. Noland's appointment is a key milestone for StrataDx following the recent equity investment by Linden Capital Partners.

"World-renowned dermatopathologist and educator, Geoffrey Gottlieb, M.D., has joined Terence Harrist, M.D. as co-director of Strata's dermatopathology department, placing two of the leading dermatopathologists in the same practice.
