Conditions We Treat 

Sickle cell disease is a blood disorder where the red blood cells that carry oxygen are curved like a sickle instead of round and soft like a disc. The misshapen cells are sticky, making it hard for blood to flow normally and consequently there is a lack of oxygen in the body, causing possible damage and pain. Sickle cell disease is passed down in families, and more common in people from African and Spanish-speaking regions.
