Conditions treated at Manly Haematology
At Manly Haematology we specialise in benign haematology. This includes venous thromboembolism, thrombophilia including Factor V Leiden, congenital and acquired bleeding disorders, myeloproliferative disorders, Monoclonal Gammopathy of Unknown Significance, anaemia, thrombocytopenia and other blood-line abnormalities.
At Manly Haematology we will also assess and manage patients with certain malignant conditions such as low-grade leukemia/lymphoma and pre-malignant conditions such as Myelodysplastic syndromes and Monoclonal Gammopathy of Unknown Significance (MGUS). We can investigate patients with suspected malignant conditions such as lymphadenopathy or splenomegaly and can arrange an appropriate referral to a local hospital-based haematologist when and if required.
Alternatively, particularly if the referral is regarding an aggressive lymphoma or an acute leukemia, please refer directly to a hospital-based haematology service.
