Low wbcs do you see a hematologist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Low wbc: First is to repeat the blood work to confirm that low WBC is persistent. If it is significantly very low and especially if the other type of blood counts are also low- like the hemoglobin and/or platelet- then yes, you should see a hematologist. If the level is just very mild and this has not been repeated- your pmd should repeat this and make sure that this isn't lab error or viral infection.
