Hematology
Specialized care guidance for blood cancers, anemia, platelet disorders, clotting problems, and other hematology conditions.
What is Hematology?
Hematology focuses on diseases related to blood, bone marrow, lymph nodes, bleeding, clotting, and blood cell production.
Patients may need hematology consultation for blood cancers such as leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma, or for non-cancer blood disorders such as anemia, low platelet count, thalassemia, and clotting disorders.
Correct diagnosis is important in hematology because symptoms like fatigue, fever, bleeding, bruising, low hemoglobin, or low platelets can have many different causes.
Dr. Shikhar Kumar provides evaluation and treatment guidance for blood-related cancers and blood disorders with a structured, report-based approach.
