Abdulrahman Alhilal

I am Laboratory Scientist. My focus is to align my experience with my career goal of becoming a Pathologist M.D.. I have previously worked as a Medical Laboratory Technician with Northwest Lab as well as Helix Diagnostics. I obtained a Bachelor of Science with an emphasis in Biomedical from Central Michigan University. I like to describe myself as a reliable and service-focused professional with excellent patient care and charting skills. My interest outside of work is reading books, various articles, and working out.
