Our Approach

The types of disorders cared for are varied and include thrombosis, anemia, bleeding and platelet disorders, and other hematological conditions and rare diseases. Our hematologists work closely with a specialized team of advanced practice providers (APPs) and nurses, in addition to our colleagues in Laboratory and Transfusion Medicine, in order to provide a multidisciplinary clinical focus.

Community outreach and education are key components of the program in order to improve awareness and understanding of non-cancer blood disorders and train the next generation of physicians, APPs, and nurses.

We offer treatment for:

• Thrombosis: blood clots blocking blood vessels
• Anemia: a lower-than-normal amount of healthy red blood cells
• Bleeding and platelet disorders: an abnormal decrease or increase in platelets or platelet dysfunction; abnormal bruising or bleeding; low or dysfunctional platelets
• Other hematological conditions: hemoglobin disorders, thalassemia, red cell enzyme or membrane disorders, low white blood cells
• Rare diseases: porphyria, PNH, mast cell disorders, eosinophil and histiocyte disorders, cold agglutinin disease
