PRECIOUS OKPALA
@preciousokpala
Medical Laboratory Scientist focused on reliable diagnostics, quality management, and patient-centered lab care.
NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Medical Laboratory Scientist with over five years of experience across Haematology, Medical Microbiology, and Chemical Pathology. I’m committed to delivering accurate, timely laboratory diagnostics that directly support clinicians and improve patient outcomes.
In my roles at Federal Medical Centre Asaba, King David Medical Diagnostic Centre, and Oke-Ola Catholic Hospital, I’ve handled routine medical laboratory investigations while maintaining strong quality standards. I also participated in ward rounds with doctors and nurses and supported HIV/TB laboratory services.
Quality and operational discipline are central to how I work—I’ve ensured quality laboratory services, performed stock management and inventory control, and managed day-to-day laboratory administration. I bring practical data collection and analysis experience, including COVID-19 sample collection and data analysis during 2020–2021.
I’m motivated by continuous learning and service, reflected in my certifications and engagement through programs such as COVID-19 and an annual scientific conference. I want to grow in a lab environment that values quality control, collaboration, and research-driven community impact.
