Blood Bank Guy

I created Blood Bank Guy in 1998 to teach the essentials of Transfusion Medicine to those who are "learners" in the field. Today, this site is a "go to" reference for pathology residents, lab science students, and physicians and nurses across many specialties. I hope what you find here will be helpful to you, too!
