For Womens Health

Iron deficiency anemia is one of the most common complications in pregnancy.   At Brodsky Hematology we work closely with OB/GYN clinics to provide expert evaluation and management of anemia and other hematologic concerns, ensuring the best outcomes for both mom and baby.

Our specialized services include:

• Iron Deficiency Anemia Diagnosis & Treatment –  IV iron therapies to optimize maternal health.
• Coagulation and Thrombosis Management – Comprehensive care for clotting disorders during pregnancy and postpartum.
• Infertility - We evaluate and guide women who have infertility or pregnancy loss, prescribing anticoagulants to maintain a pregnancy.
• Pre-Delivery Optimization – Helping patients enter labor with healthy blood counts for safer deliveries.

Internal Medicine / Primary Care

Primary care providers and hospitalists rely on us for rapid, expert consultation and follow-up care for patients with hematologic concerns. Whether your patient is newly diagnosed, recently discharged, or seeking a second opinion, Brodsky Hematology delivers personalized, responsive care.

We offer:

• Rapid Post-Discharge Follow-Up -We make discharge planning easier by providing fast appointments for patients needing close outpatient hematology follow-up.
  
• Second Opinions & Long-Term Management -We welcome consults for patients seeking additional perspectives on blood disorders, hematologic cancers, or anticoagulation management.
  
• Anticoagulation Management -From DOACs to warfarin, we tailor anticoagulation therapy to the patient's unique clinical needs, offering both initiation and maintenance support
  
• Iron Infusion Therapy (Coming Soon)

We will offer IV iron treatments in-office to address iron deficiency anemia without delay.

Surgery/Pre-op Evaluations

Surgical outcomes improve when hematologic issues are addressed proactively. We collaborate with surgical teams to ensure patients are medically optimized before going under the knife.

Our pre-operative hematology services include:

• Bleeding & Clotting Risk Assessment - Evaluation for inherited or acquired bleeding disorders, as well as thrombophilia screening.

• Pre-Operative Anemia Correction - Diagnosis and treatment of anemia to reduce transfusion risk and promote healing.

• Iron Deficiency Treatment - IV iron therapy when needed to elevate hemoglobin safely prior to elective procedures.

• Perioperative Anticoagulation Management - Guidance on when to stop, bridge, or resume blood thinners safely around surgery.
  

Orthopedics

We provide comprehensive pre-operative hematology evaluations to help ensure a smooth, safe surgical experience including

• Anemia Workup & Optimization – Correct low blood counts for better healing and recovery.
• Coagulation Disorder Assessment – Identify and manage conditions like von Willebrand disease or antiphospholipid antibody syndrome.
• Thrombosis Risk Evaluation – Evaluate clotting risks and recommend personalized perioperative anticoagulation strategies.
• Medication Management – Guidance on blood thinners and post-operative DVT prevention.
  

Gastroenterology

At Brodsky Hematology, we work closely with gastroenterologists to manage the complex hematologic needs of patients with GI-related conditions.

• IBD-Related Anemia - For patients with ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease, we treat iron deficiency and anemia of chronic inflammation.
• Thrombosis - Evaluation and treatment of portal vein or mesenteric vein thrombosis in patients with liver disease or hypercoagulable conditions.

Cardiology

Patients with cardiovascular disease often develop hematologic complications, including anemia and clotting issues. We provide specialized support for your heart failure and anticoagulation patients.

Services include:

• IV Iron Therapy for Heart Failure - For patients with heart failure and iron deficiency anemia, we offer IV iron replacement, which may improve symptoms and functional status.
• Anticoagulation Management - Monitoring and adjustment of anticoagulants for atrial fibrillation, mechanical valves, or history of thromboembolism.

• Second Opinions for Cytopenias or Clotting 

When there's diagnostic uncertainty or concern for evolving hematologic malignancy.

• Supportive Care During Cancer Treatment

Management of chemotherapy-induced or checkpoint inhibitor-related pancytopenia, as well as immune-mediated hematologic side effects.

  Especially in younger patients or cryptogenic stroke cases.
  
• Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome (APS)
  Co-management of APS in patients with neurologic symptoms or vascular events.
