Hematology

- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and other types of blood clots

Oncology
An oncologist is a specialist who treats many different types of cancer with chemotherapy and other medications. They explain the patient’s cancer diagnosis, discuss and recommend treatment options, provide supportive care, coordinate treatment by other specialists such as surgeons and radiation oncologists, and help the patient manage cancer-related pain and other symptoms or treatment side effects.
