After graduating from the University of South Carolina School of Medicine in 2001, he completed anatomic/clinical pathology residency and a cytopathology fellowship at Wake Forest, followed by a GI/Liver pathology fellowship at UCLA in 2006-2007, with additional training in pulmonary pathology (including interstitial lung disease) at UCLA before returning to South Carolina. He has been awarded Outstanding Teacher for pulmonary pathology instruction to fellows in pulmonary medicine.

Dr. Bradley practices general surgical pathology and cytology and performs expert consultations for challenging GI and lung pathology cases, both neoplastic and nonneoplastic.
