After seven years as a practicing pathologist and University of Utah faculty member, Dr. Daines moved to Washington State and gained a wealth of experience working for a large 200 physician multispecialty group. After five additional years in practice, Dr. Daines returned to the University of Washington to acquire his subspecialty expertise in hematopathology.
