Hematology Oncology for Blood Cancers

ChristianaCare Oncology Hematology is dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment and compassionate care of people with blood cancers and serious disorders of the blood. Conditions we treat include:

  • Leukemia: Affects the bloodstream and bone marrow, causing abnormal white blood cell production.
  • Lymphoma: Cancer that forms solid tumors within the lymphatic system. We treat both Hodgkin’s and non-Hodgkin’s types, each affecting different white blood cells, and tailor treatment plans accordingly.
  • Multiple myeloma: Cancer of plasma cells in the bone marrow that can damage bones and weaken the immune system.
  • Myelodysplastic syndromes: Disorders caused by dysfunctional bone marrow, leading to a decrease in healthy blood cells.
  • Non-malignant blood disorders: These include serious but non-cancerous conditions, like anemia, clotting, and sickle cell disease.

Expert Diagnosis and Advanced Treatments

Our team of experienced hematologists and oncologists leverage the latest research and therapies to offer cutting-edge treatments for blood cancers. We leverage a combination of proven treatments, including surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and potentially stem cell transplantation.

Whether you need a cancer blood test, diagnosis or treatment plan, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
