About Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD), hemophilia, and some other blood disorders are severe, lifelong, and presently incurable diseases. We are instituting new programs to study and better treat iron overload in multiply transfused patients, comprehensive management of cardiac and pulmonary disease in SCD, and other initiatives to improve the transition of care from adolescence to adulthood and overall quality of life of these patients. Our pediatric hematology team works alongside the pediatric BMT/Gene therapy team at the University of Florida to proudly offer transformative gene therapies and curative BMT therapies for our sickle cell patients.
