Hematologist Jobs in Poughkeepsie, NY

A Hematologist is a specialist in the field of medicine who focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases and disorders related to blood. This includes conditions such as anemia, clotting disorders, sickle cell disease, leukemia, lymphoma, and other blood cancers. They perform clinical work, research, and examinations to determine the nature of a patient's problem through blood tests and biopsies. They also play a significant role in patient care, often working with patients over prolonged periods, and collaborating with other health care professionals in managing patient care. Hematologists are also responsible for interpreting results, conducting follow-ups, and providing appropriate treatments, which may involve medications, blood transfusions, or stem cell transplants.

Essential skills and qualifications that a Hematologist should possess include a Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree, completed residency in Internal Medicine, and specialized training in Hematology. They must also secure Board Certification in Hematology. Strong clinical skills, excellent knowledge of hematological disorders, and the ability to operate medical equipment used in Hematology are also critical. In addition, good communication skills, the ability to work in a team, and a strong focus on patient care are vital. Prior to becoming a Hematologist, a person might work as a Medical Intern, a Resident in Internal Medicine, or even a Hematology Fellow as part of their specialized training.
