The Haematology Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) comprises a group of expert doctors, nurses and other health care professionals with a special interest in the diagnosis, treatment and management of people with Haematological diagnosis.

 The team meets on a weekly basis to discuss, in confidence, all newly referred patients with a haematology diagnosis (or suspected diagnosis).

This approach ensures that all necessary investigations are carried out as quickly as possible and an agreed programme of treatment is planned which is specific to the patient's needs. Treatment options are then discussed with the patient and their family and started without delay. The Haematology MDT links into other health care professionals in primary and secondary care as appropriate, to ensure a seamless service is provided which meets the patient's whole needs.
