Understanding and Treating Blood Conditions

At Fortis Hospital, we understand that blood disorders can be a source of concern. Our dedicated team of hematologists is here to provide comprehensive diagnosis, treatment, and support for a wide range of blood conditions.

What is Haematology?

Hematology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the blood, blood-forming organs (bone marrow), and the immune system. Hematologists diagnose and treat disorders affecting red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and the proteins involved in blood clotting.
