Michael Kluk, MD, PhD
Pathologist
My Role at MSKWe post reviews for MSK healthcare providers who have at least 30 patient experience surveys completed. If you do not see reviews for a provider, it may be because they do not yet have enough survey responses, or the provider may not be part of the group of healthcare providers included in the survey.
Only outpatient providers are included in the survey. Healthcare providers who only work in the hospital or in urgent care are not included in the survey. Pathologists or researchers who do not provide direct care to patients do not have reviews.

About Me
- Associate Attending Pathologist
I am a board-certified pathologist who specializes in hematopathology and molecular pathology. My work involves reviewing and analyzing biopsy samples collected from patients to help diagnose and monitor diseases such as plasma cell disorders, leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloid disorders.
We use a variety of tests and techniques, including morphology, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, molecular testing, and cytogenetic testing, to analyze samples and generate diagnostic reports, which help our colleagues in hematology and medical oncology provide the best patient care.
My research has focused on the development and implementation of new biomarkers of disease and new assays, for use in translational research and clinical testing.
A pathologist is a doctor who uses a microscope to make a diagnosis from cell and tissue samples. They analyze the samples to learn the cause and effects of a health condition.
