What makes this consultation different
Urgent evaluation when necessary
When the case warrants it, the initial evaluation is prioritized without weeks of waiting.
Precise differential diagnosis
We distinguish between leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, and other causes before defining a plan.
Second opinion available
We review already-confirmed or only suspected diagnoses with the same rigor.
In person or by video call
The same quality of care, wherever you are.
Is this consultation right for you?
Signs that warrant an urgent evaluation:
Extreme fatigue and paleness
This can point to a bone marrow problem — anywhere from simple anemia to leukemia. Only a complete evaluation can tell the two apart.
Swollen lymph nodes and persistent fever
These signs can point to different hematologic diseases, and the exact pattern helps tell them apart.
Bone pain with abnormal lab results
Bone pain combined with abnormal blood findings has several possible causes, and myeloma is one of the first investigated.
A lab result that concerns your doctor
When you're urgently referred because of an abnormal finding, the next step is a complete hematologic-oncology evaluation, without delay.
A practice built over time, one patient at a time.
Close, attentive care, with the rigor of the best Hematology practice.

Blood cancers I diagnose, and how I treat them
The term hematologic oncology covers several distinct diseases, each with its own behavior and diagnosis. Bone marrow transplant is one of the treatment options when the case requires it.
Leukemia
Cancer that originates in the bone marrow and affects the production of blood cells. There are acute types, which progress quickly, and chronic types, which progress more slowly — the specific type determines how urgent treatment is.
Lymphoma
Cancer of the lymphatic system, with Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin subtypes. It often shows up as persistent swollen lymph nodes, and the exact subtype classification is what defines the right treatment.
Multiple Myeloma
Cancer of the plasma cells in the bone marrow, which can weaken the bones and affect kidney function. It's often first detected as a lab finding, before causing obvious symptoms.
Bone Marrow Transplant
Not a disease, but a treatment option for some of the cancers above — autologous, using the patient's own cells, or allogeneic, using a compatible donor.
