FAQ's Related to Hematologist

When should I go to a hematologist?

What conditions are treated by a hematologist?

Hematologists treat a wide range of conditions, such as anemia, clotting disorders, hemophilia, thalassemia, leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, myelodysplastic syndrome, and other blood disorders.

What tests may a hematologist order?

Depending on your symptoms, a hematologist may order blood tests (CBC, clotting profile), a bone marrow biopsy, flow cytometry, and/or genetic/molecular tests to help with a diagnosis.

What treatments do hematologists provide?

Depending on the diagnosis and severity of the blood disorder, treatment may consist of medications, blood transfusions, chemotherapy, bone marrow transplant, immunotherapy, or targeted therapy.
