The Clinical Apheresis department consists of a specialized nursing team offering local hospitals the only around-the-clock therapeutic blood product exchanges for life-threatening disease processes. Outpatient services for therapeutic phlebotomy, blood transfusion, and iron infusions are also provided.

Hemostasis & Thrombosis Clinic

Our clinic specializes in patients who have failed conventional therapeutic approaches by developing complex coagulopathies for specialized diagnosis and treatment. Our experienced clinicians regularly consult with other laboratories seeking advice for patients with challenging disorders.
