Some common blood disorders that hematologists treat include:

  • Anemia: a condition in which there is a deficiency of red blood cells or hemoglobin, which can lead to fatigue and other symptoms
  • Bleeding disorders: conditions that affect the body’s ability to clot blood, such as hemophilia and von Willebrand disease
  • Blood cancers: cancers that affect the blood cells, including leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma

Hematologists often work closely with other medical professionals, such as oncologists, to diagnose and treat blood disorders. If you have concerns about a blood disorder, it is important to speak with a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.
