The Division of Hematology and Oncology cares for approximately
105 new patients each year, involving an average of 3,000 clinic
visits annually. The division is also responsible for more than 30
inpatient consultations monthly.
Our faculty’s research interests include the long-term side effects of cancer treatment in children and adolescents, the biology of Hodgkin’s disease, immunotherapy for neuroblastoma, new drug development for pediatric cancer and pain management in patients with sickle cell disease. Much of our clinical research is done through participation in various committees of the Children’s Oncology Group.
We have specialized centers for the care of patients with sickle cell disease, hemophilia and malignancies. Women & Children’s Hospital of Buffalo and Roswell Park Cancer Institute have inpatient and outpatient services where the specialized care of children with hematologic and oncologic diagnoses is provided by residents and faculty.
