Australian Pathology, Level 1, 16 Napier Close, Canberra (2026)

28/04/2026

Since July 2020, Phillip has been living with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia.

“I was diagnosed through a PCR blood test.”

After completing chemotherapy, a molecular relapse was detected just five months later through a PCR blood test.

Following a bone marrow transplant in July 2021, another relapse was detected in September 2022, once again through a PCR blood test.

“Over the following three years, I had another four molecular relapses, all detected by PCR blood tests.”

These tests have allowed Phillip’s care team to act early and adjust his treatment before the disease progresses.

“These tests have been my early warning system. Without them, I wouldn’t be here today. They have allowed my haematologists to implement different treatment options to obtain remission periods.”

“Regular blood tests have helped detect cancer early and given me a good chance at life.”

At 81 years old, William has been having regular blood tests for decades.

“I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1998, and bowel cancer in 2012.”

Pathology has played a critical role in both his diagnosis and ongoing care.

“With every six-month test, the results have helped pick things up early.”

These tests continue to support his health and monitor his condition over time.

“The tests have helped me live longer. I am 81 years of age and still enjoying life the best I can.”

“Blood tests have become a constant part of our son Reuben’s childhood, not something any parent imagines, but something we’ve learned to navigate because it keeps him safe.”

Erin’s 14 year old son Reuben lives with X linked thrombocytopenia, a rare condition that affects his platelets. He was just six when they first realised something wasn’t right.

“Pathology was the reason we found his diagnosis in the first place.”

Ongoing blood tests revealed consistent abnormalities, leading to further investigation and diagnosis.

Now, as Reuben begins a new medication trial, testing has increased from a few times a year to every two weeks.

“Those tests are essential for monitoring his response and protecting his health.”

“I hate needles… but I knew this test mattered.”

My symptoms had become too painful to ignore. I finally went to my GP. She understood my fear and supported me to get the tests I needed.

That changed everything.

At 29, I was diagnosed with arthritis - something I would never have known without pathology. Now it can be treated, monitored and managed.

For many people like me, pathology isn’t easy. But it plays a vital role in providing answers and helping guide the next steps in care.

Ensuring people can continue to access these services, wherever they live and whatever their circumstances are, is essential.

Years ago, a rare fungal infection caused Tania to lose one of her kidneys.

“If pathology hadn’t picked it up, I would have died. And later, when I developed sepsis, pathology detected it in time.”

Now, regular blood tests catch early warning signs before it’s too late.

“Pathology saved my life. Twice.”

My mum worked as a phlebotomist, collecting blood and samples for testing and diagnosis. It’s skilled, essential work, and millions of Australians rely on it each year.

It was an honour to speak at the launch of the Value and Contribution of Pathology Report, recognising the vital role pathology plays across our health system.

A quiet powerhouse, supported by a female-dominated workforce and critical to patient care every day.

Supporting access, affordability and this workforce is key to keeping our health system strong.
