Divisions: Hematology/Oncology
The Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Program combines the specialized expertise and dedicated resources of one of the region's leaders in pediatric care, research and education.
The program provides the region's most highly specialized resources for children with cancer, anemias, sickle cell disease, and bleeding/coagulation problems.
Residents also learn from a multidisciplinary team that includes highly skilled nurse specialists, social workers, child-life specialists, and physical and occupational therapists specially trained not only to provide clinical help but also to offer emotional support for the children and their families. These health care professionals help to educate the residents on the psychosocial issues that affect children and families facing serious life-threatening diseases.
