NH-Leukemia Program Team
The NH-Leukemia Program team members are highly educated and trained in the most current clinical research and standard of care treatment modalities. These dedicated health care professionals provide outstanding patient care where the patient comes first.
The NH-Leukemia Program conducts a weekly interdisciplinary meeting to review diagnostic testing results, treatment plans, and responses to treatment for all new and current patients. The team includes hematopathologists, clinical pathologists, leukemia physicians, leukemia RN clinical coordinators, a clinical research team, flow cytometry and molecular diagnostics PhDs, advanced practice providers, health psychologists, social workers, inpatient and outpatient nurses, and ancillary support staff.
We believe this interdisciplinary sub-specialist team approach provides patients with the most up-to-date academic-based treatment plans that result in excellent survival outcomes.
The Blood and Marrow Transplant Group of Georgia’s physicians provides leadership to the NH-Leukemia Program, manages the clinical care of patients in the hospital or outpatient setting, and develops state-of-the-art clinical research protocols and treatment plans.

Leukemia RN clinical coordinators
Leukemia RN clinical coordinators coordinate patient care at the time of diagnosis and throughout the treatment process. Upon admission or consultation, a leukemia RN clinical coordinator is assigned. Coordinating efforts include facilitating direct admissions and hospital-to-hospital transfers, working directly with the Leukemia Program physicians, and providing clear and direct communication with Northside Hospital’s hematopathology, flow cytometry, molecular diagnostic laboratories, and clinical laboratory departments.
