at Sterling Hospitals
At Sterling Hospitals, Gandhidham, our haematologists provide care for a wide range of blood and blood-related conditions, with treatment planned according to the underlying condition, its severity and the individual patient's needs. Below, you can explore our list of haematologists and choose a doctor based on your preferences.
A haematologist is a doctor who specialises in disorders of the blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic system. They diagnose and treat conditions like anaemia, blood cancers such as leukaemia and lymphoma, clotting disorders like haemophilia, and platelet abnormalities. Haematologists also often manage bone marrow transplants and oversee patients who need blood transfusions or long-term blood-thinning treatment. In many hospitals, this specialty overlaps closely with oncology, sometimes combined into a single "haemato-oncology" department.
Our haematologists at Sterling Hospitals, Gandhidham, provide diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of conditions affecting the blood, blood-forming tissues and related systems, including but not limited to the following:
Anaemia occurs when the blood does not have enough healthy red blood cells or haemoglobin to carry adequate oxygen to the body's tissues. Depending on the underlying cause, treatment may involve nutritional supplementation, medicines, management of an underlying condition or other appropriate therapies.
Iron deficiency anaemia develops when the body does not have sufficient iron to produce adequate haemoglobin. Haematologists evaluate the underlying cause of iron deficiency and may recommend iron supplementation, dietary measures or treatment of conditions contributing to the deficiency.
Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder that affects the body's ability to produce haemoglobin. Management depends on the type and severity of the condition and may involve regular monitoring, blood transfusions, medicines and other specialised care.
Sickle cell disease is an inherited blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin causes red blood cells to become rigid and sickle-shaped. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and complications and may include medicines, blood transfusions and other therapies depending on the individual's condition.
Bleeding and clotting disorders can affect the body's ability to control bleeding or form blood clots appropriately. Haematologists evaluate the underlying cause and may recommend medicines, replacement therapies or other measures to manage the condition and reduce associated complications.
Haemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder in which the blood does not clot properly because of a deficiency or reduced activity of certain clotting factors. Management may involve replacement of the deficient clotting factor and other treatments based on the type and severity of the disorder.
Thrombocytopenia refers to an abnormally low platelet count, which can increase the risk of bleeding. Treatment depends on the underlying cause and severity and may include medicines, monitoring or other interventions when required.
Leukaemia is a cancer of the blood-forming tissues that leads to the abnormal production of blood cells. Treatment depends on the specific type of leukaemia and may involve chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, stem cell transplantation or other specialised treatments.
Lymphoma is a cancer affecting the lymphatic system and includes Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Treatment is determined by the type and stage of lymphoma and may involve chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, radiation therapy or other approaches.
Multiple myeloma is a cancer of plasma cells, a type of white blood cell involved in the immune system. Treatment may include medicines such as targeted therapies and immunotherapies, chemotherapy, corticosteroids, stem cell transplantation or other treatments depending on the patient's condition.
Myelodysplastic syndromes are a group of disorders in which the bone marrow does not produce healthy blood cells effectively. Treatment depends on the specific type and severity and may include supportive care, medicines, blood transfusions or stem cell transplantation in selected patients.
Various disorders can affect the bone marrow and interfere with normal blood cell production. Haematological evaluation helps identify the underlying condition and determine an appropriate treatment and monitoring plan.
Our haematologists at Sterling Hospitals, Gandhidham, provide a range of treatment options and specialised therapies based on the underlying blood disorder, its severity and individual requirements. These include, but are not limited to, the following:
Blood transfusion involves providing donated blood or specific blood components such as red blood cells, platelets or plasma. It may be recommended for patients with significant anaemia, low platelet counts, bleeding or certain blood disorders, depending on their clinical needs.
Iron therapy is used to treat iron deficiency when the body's iron stores are insufficient to produce adequate haemoglobin. Depending on the severity of the deficiency and the patient's response to treatment, iron may be given orally or intravenously.
Management of bleeding and clotting disorders depends on the specific condition and the affected clotting factors or blood components. Treatment may include clotting factor replacement, medicines that control bleeding or clot formation, and other specialised therapies.
Chemotherapy uses medicines to destroy or control abnormal blood cells and may form part of the treatment for conditions such as leukaemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma. The medicines and treatment schedule depend on the specific blood cancer and individual treatment requirements.
Targeted therapy uses medicines designed to act on specific molecules or biological features involved in the growth or survival of abnormal blood cells. It may be recommended for selected blood cancers when testing indicates that a particular targeted treatment may be appropriate.
Immunotherapy uses medicines that help the immune system recognise or respond to abnormal cells. It may be used for certain blood cancers and other haematological conditions, depending on the diagnosis and treatment plan.
Stem cell transplantation involves replacing damaged or diseased blood-forming stem cells with healthy stem cells. It may be considered for selected patients with conditions such as certain leukaemias, lymphomas, multiple myeloma and other serious blood or bone marrow disorders.
Bone marrow evaluation involves examining a sample of bone marrow to assess blood cell production and identify abnormalities. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy may be recommended to help diagnose or monitor conditions affecting blood cells and the bone marrow.
Not every blood-related symptom indicates a serious blood disorder, but persistent, unexplained or abnormal findings may require specialist evaluation. Consider consulting a haematologist if you:
Have persistent or unexplained fatigue or weakness: Ongoing tiredness, weakness or reduced exercise tolerance may warrant evaluation, particularly when associated with abnormal blood counts.
Have been diagnosed with anaemia or an abnormal blood count: A haematologist can assess the underlying cause and recommend appropriate treatment and monitoring.
Experience unusual or recurrent bleeding: Frequent nosebleeds, easy bruising, prolonged bleeding or other unexplained bleeding may require evaluation of the blood's clotting function.
Develop unexplained blood clots: Recurrent or unexplained clots may require specialist assessment to identify an underlying clotting disorder.
Have persistently low or high blood cell counts: Abnormal red blood cell, white blood cell or platelet counts may require further investigation to determine the cause.
Have been diagnosed with a blood or bone marrow disorder: Conditions such as thalassemia, sickle cell disease, haemophilia or other haematological disorders may require regular specialist care.
Have been diagnosed with a blood cancer: Patients with leukaemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma or other blood cancers may require specialised treatment and ongoing monitoring.
Have abnormal bone marrow or blood test findings: A haematologist can evaluate unusual laboratory results and recommend further investigations, including bone marrow evaluation when appropriate.
Need a second opinion: A haematologist can review previous reports, diagnosis and treatment recommendations and provide an independent clinical opinion.
Have been referred by another doctor: A physician or another specialist may recommend a haematology consultation when blood test results, symptoms or other clinical findings require specialist assessment.
