Our Patient Blood Transfusions and Palliative Care

On-Site Blood Transfusions
Patients on chemotherapy, patients suffering from MDS, Aplastic Anemia, etc., need supportive care with transfusions of PRBC and platelets.  We are one of the few outpatient sites in the country with an on-site state blood banking license and perform blood transfusions, platelet transfusions, and Factor product transfusions at our office.

Alternatives to Blood Transfusions
We also specialize in helping our patients who want to avoid transfusions for personal reasons with erythropoietin stimulating agents like darbepoetin (Aranesp) or Procrit and Intravenous Iron to boost hemoglobin levels.

Palliative Care
While on treatment, many patients require additional support. We offer our patients Palliative Care consultations on-site for the convenience of our patients. Palliative Care is a specialty that focuses on quality of life for both the patient and their family through an individualized approach to pain and symptom management, coping with illness, depression and anxiety management, as well as advanced care planning. Our Palliative Care team provides the patient along with their family with continued support.

Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy

Bone marrow aspirations and biopsies are sometimes required in the routine evaluation of benign and malignant blood disorders. Our highly-trained medical team performs this procedure in a comfortable setting, under local anesthesia. The specimens are reviewed by an expert board-certified pathologist and subjected to sophisticated genetic and molecular diagnostic techniques for superior results. To find out more about the facilities discussed above, please contact our office.

Genetic Counseling & Testing

Our practice has partnered with Myriad Genetics to offer an array of genetic tests, prognostic tests, and personalized medicine tests to help us assess a patient’s increased cancer risk, disease aggressiveness, and optimize the efficacy of chemotherapy. With the availability of BRCA and colaris (Lynch syndrome) testing, we can make medical management decisions to reduce cancer risk and help make sure specific treatments are tailored for each individual patient.
