Who's the best doctor to see for dvt?
8 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Hematologist: If it is a simple DVT associated with a recognizable clinical event (pregnancy, accident, prolonged immobilization) then your general doctor is oftentimes just fine. However, if there are any associated complexities (family or personal history of a thrombophilia- genetic predisposition to a dvt, for ex.) you may want to consult with a hematologist ( a dr. That specializes in blood disorders).

DVT: A primary care physician should be seen if there is concern for dvt. After examining the patient, the physician may order an ultrasound to evaluate for dvt.

Me: obviously. You want to see a pulmonologist. They deal with this all the time. Hematology is also an option.
