If you have unexplained anemia, frequent bruising/bleeding, abnormal blood counts, blood cancers (such as leukemia or lymphoma), or inherited blood disorders (such as thalassemia or sickle cell disease), you should consult 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.
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.
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.
No. Hematology refers to both cancerous and non-cancerous blood disorders. Most of the time, patients see hematologists for conditions such as anemia, clotting problems, or inherited blood disorders, which are not cancers.
Hematology covers conditions that affect the blood and bone marrow, and Oncology involves cancer. A hematologist-oncologist is a doctor with expertise in both areas. They treat people with blood cancers (e.g. leukemia, lymphoma or myeloma), as well as non-cancerous conditions.
