Information For Health Professionals

Our program has always strived to be an open resource for your patients with hematologic malignancies. Our 18 bed unit is now accepting patients for leukemic inductions as well as patients ready for the transplant process. We hope to work as part of your team and would always appreciate seeing patients early in their treatment to help triage their illness from a transplant perspective.

 

Our Temple Physician Liaison Service is another resource available to you for more information about our program and protocols and to help facilitate patient visits and communication with the program.
