There are currently 3 consultants covering the haematology service with one lead each for leukaemia, haemostasis and red cell disorders. We also have a haemostasis consultant who looks after children as well as adults with bleeding disorders. The wider paediatric team is very welcoming and sociable and includes general paediatrics, nephrology, rheumatology, metabolic , gastroenterology, intensive care and interests in cardiology. We have excellent links with paediatric surgery with dedicated theatre time for line insertions and have twice weekly dedicated bone marrow/intrathecal lists.
