Specialists in Blood Disease

Your blood does important work that can be disrupted by blood diseases. Blood transports vital nutrients and oxygen around your body and carries away waste products and carbon dioxide from your cells. Overall, your blood serves as a transport system for the entire body.

Blood diseases, disorders and cancers prevent the circulatory system from doing its job. When a blood disease affects your health, turn to the specialists at Sanford Hematology. We provide the compassionate care and expert treatments you need when you are diagnosed with a blood disorder, includingbone marrow transplant.

Comprehensive Leukemia Care

Most cancers occur when abnormal cells grow out of control. Withleukemia, the disease starts in the bone marrow, where blood cells are made. The bone marrow then makes abnormal blood cells that crowd out healthy cells.

There are acute and chronic types of leukemia. Acute leukemia grows very fast and needs immediate treatment. Chronic leukemia is slow-growing, and patients can choose to delay treatment. Learn more about thetypes of leukemia.

At Sanford Hematology, you’ll work with hematology and oncology experts to create a personalized care plan for your blood disease. Your treatment options include different therapies that will target leukemia cells while leaving healthy cells alone. Throughout your treatments, your care team will provide the latest cancer care. They will always be there withsupport and encouragement.
