The field of haematology (hematology) covers a broad spectrum of blood disorders. We provide a comprehensive one-stop service for the diagnostic investigations and treatment of a wide range of benign blood and bone marrow disorders. This includes:
- All types of anaemia (iron deficiency anaemia, B12/ Folate deficiency, anaemia of chronic disease)
- Inherited red cell disorders (e.g. sickle cell disease, thalassemia)
- Autoimmune hemolytic anemia, an immune-mediated disease causing a low red blood cell count
- Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), an immunemediated disease causing a low platelet count
- Clotting problems (deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolus)
- Bleeding or bruising problems (e.g. hemophilia)
- Iron metabolism disorders such as haemochromatosis (iron overload)
