Conditions we treat

Our pediatric hematology and oncology specialists treat all cancers and blood disorders

Conditions include:

  • Benign blood disorders, such as iron deficiency and blood platelet conditions
    • Anemias (many categories - include iron deficiency, hereditary spherocytosis, G-6PD deficiency, autoimmune hemolytic anemia and rarer disorders)
    • Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), an immune-mediated disease causing a low platelet count
    • Low blood counts (white count, red cell count, or platelet count) due to a drug reaction-for example, heparin-induced thrombocytopenia
    • Low blood counts not due to medications but related to underlying medical conditions-for example, anemia of chronic disease, or low platelet count secondary to liver disease
    • Thalassemia (mild)
    • Von Willebrand's disease
  • Brain and spinal cord tumors
    • Low-grade glioma
    • Medulloblastoma
    • Ependymoma
