Collaborative Gynecology & Hematology Clinic
The Collaborative Gynecology & Hematology Clinic at U-M Health offers a multidisciplinary approach to caring for adults with gynecologic issues related to bleeding and clotting disorders.
Our Approach
Each patient is seen by a gynecologist and a hematologist trained in the care of individuals with abnormal bleeding and clotting, a nurse specialist, and a social worker who has special expertise working with individuals with bleeding and clotting disorders. We provide consultation for new patients, as well as continuing care for return patients. Our team is committed to providing patient-centered care with compassion and respect.
