Hematology-oncology refers to the combined medical practice of hematology, the study of the blood’s physiology, and oncology the study of cancer. This type of medical diagnoses and treats cancerous blood disorders and manages symptoms of these diseases. Some diseases or disorders our listeners might be familiar with include leukemia, sickle cell disease, and clotting disorders. Now we are fortunate to talk with Dr. Vemulapalli to learn more about hematology, oncology, and the Timken Family Cancer Center.
