Leukemia is a cancer of the body's blood-forming tissues, including the bone marrow and the lymphatic system, affecting both adults and children. Leukemia usually disrupts the normal functioning of the white blood cells (WBCs) due to excessive amounts of abnormal WBCs.
Our North American and European Board Certified expert hematologists and oncologists offer comprehensive care for complex leukemia cases along with state-of-the-art technologies and advanced techniques to facilitate successful patient outcomes.

- Blood tests
