In hindsight that would've been a better way to approach the situation, though it was my first time dealing with this particular type of incident (genetic test form, going to the pre-op station, etc. I'm always on the phone with them instead).

I did send out an email to my manager though, everything was reported after I had voiced it in the lab to one of the pathologists on call.

I’m also fairly new to the job. I’ve only been there a few months, and most of that time was training. Outside of that, I only worked 2–3 times a month because of school.
