Welcome to Northern Pathology Victoria (NPV)
Northern Pathology Victoria (NPV) is the public pathology provider for Northern Health, serving the northern community since 2019. We have expanded significantly to meet the growing clinical demands of the Northern Health network.
NPV manages five integrated care centres: Northern Hospital Epping, Broadmeadows Hospital, Bundoora Centre, Craigieburn Centre and Kilmore District Hospital. Our laboratory is located at Northern Hospital Epping and we operate six collection centres across the region.
Our laboratory plays a crucial role in supporting patient care by delivering pathology testing that prioritises patient safety, clinical effectiveness and high-quality reporting.
As part of an academic teaching hospital, we are dedicated to advancing research and developing new technologies, particularly in thrombosis and cardiovascular medicine. This commitment is supported by our specialised thrombosis research laboratory and coagulation services department.
We offer a comprehensive range of testing services, including Haematology, Transfusion Medicine, Microbiology, Biochemistry and Anatomical Pathology, for both public and private patients.
