A member asked:
I have been referred to a hematologist by my pcp due to low white and red blood counts. what can i expect?

Double checking: I think initially your hematologist will want to double check your blood counts. If they are persistently low, they will discuss with you what the potential causes are and what further tests could be done to sort them out. Good luck.

Testing: They will likely order further testing to determine the cause of your anemia.
