Comprehensive Care for Hemophilia and Bleeding Disorders in Children
Living with hemophilia or another bleeding disorder can create intense challenges. But with the right care team behind you, anything is possible. At Cincinnati Children’s, our team of physicians, nurses and other health professionals provides comprehensive care for mild, moderate and severe bleeding disorders. We connect families to the resources, education and support they need to meet the challenges ahead.
Our program includes a Comprehensive Care Clinic for children and adolescents with severe bleeding disorders, as well as clinic appointments for those with less complex needs. We take a holistic approach, offering:
- Coordinated care from multiple specialists
- Personalized treatment plans
- Innovative therapies
- Genetic testing and counseling
- Specialized, on-site laboratory services
- Opportunities to participate in clinical research studies
- Extensive education and support
- Information about community resources
Our pediatric hematologists (doctors who specialize in blood diseases) have dedicated their careers to caring for patients with hemophilia and other bleeding disorders. They participate in many national and international research trials and develop their own research protocols as well. This means many of our patients can receive early access to new therapies that are not widely available.
