About Hematologist Doctors

Conditions Treated by a Hematologist

Iron Deficiency Anaemia

Most common blood disorder in India, especially in women and children, caused by low iron levels.

Thalassemia

Inherited blood disorder causing abnormal haemoglobin production. India has the largest number of thalassemia carriers globally.

Lymphoma

Cancer of the lymphatic system — Hodgkin's and Non-Hodgkin's types.

Thrombocytopenia

Low platelet count causing bleeding tendency. Can be due to dengue, ITP, or bone marrow problems.

Blood Health Tips

  • Eat iron-rich foods daily
  • Get premarital thalassemia screening
  • Don't ignore persistent fatigue — check haemoglobin
  • Complete iron supplement courses fully
  • Know your blood group and keep records
  • Dengue prevention protects your platelets

How to Prepare for Your Hematologist Visit

Before Your Visit

  • Bring complete blood count (CBC) reports — current and previous for comparison
  • Bring peripheral smear report if available
  • List all symptoms — fatigue, bruising, bleeding, infections
  • Note any family history of blood disorders

During the Appointment

  • Mention any medications including blood thinners and supplements
  • Discuss any recent infections — they can affect blood counts temporarily
  • Ask about genetic testing if blood disorder runs in family
  • Discuss dietary sources of iron, B12, and folic acid

After the Visit

  • Take iron supplements as directed — usually on empty stomach with vitamin C for better absorption
  • Follow up with blood tests as recommended to track progress
  • Report any unusual bleeding or bruising immediately
  • Consider genetic counselling if you carry thalassemia or sickle cell trait

Questions to Ask Your Hematologist

  1. 1.What is causing my abnormal blood counts?
  2. 2.Do I need a bone marrow biopsy?
  3. 3.Is my condition inherited — should family members be tested?
  4. 4.How often do I need blood transfusions?
  5. 5.What foods can help improve my blood counts?

When Should You See a Hematologist?

A Hematologist specializes in blood disorders — anaemia, bleeding problems, blood cancers, and clotting disorders.

  • Severe or unexplained anaemia (low haemoglobin)
  • Abnormal blood counts — high or low WBC, platelets
  • Easy bruising or prolonged bleeding
  • Enlarged lymph nodes without infection
  • Blood clots — deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism
  • Sickle cell disease or thalassemia management
  • Suspected blood cancer — leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma

Seek emergency care for massive bleeding not stopping, widespread bruising with low platelet count, or sudden breathlessness with leg swelling (possible pulmonary embolism).
