Hematologist
Oncologists work with the malignancies that are 'solid': breast cancer, lung cancer, liver, sarcomas, carcinomas, melanomas, etc.
Hematologists work with diseases and disorders of the blood and bone marrow: leukemias, lymphomas, multiple myeloma, and thalassemia, sickle cell, etc. as well.
A huge number of them have done training in both hematology and oncology and are called 'heme/oncs.'
If you have leukemia, you need a hematologist or a heme/onc.

They are called Oncologists. Oncologists are Doctors specializing in cancer, so they deal with Leukemia and all the other kinds.

Oncologist or Hematologist.
God loves you and you are precious to Him. Son of God died on the Cross to save us from condemnation, and qualifying us to Heaven. Just come to Jesus with genuine repentance and faith, and you will find peace, hope and meaning for your life. Heaven is wonderful beyond descriptions and forever without end. Never miss Heaven for anything of this troubled world. Life on earth is short and uncertain. Get right with God to-day before it is too late. Best wishes for happiness and Heaven!

Hematologist in Oncology. They study blood cancers. I work with 3 of them. They specialize in blood dyscrasia's (abnormalities) and leukemia is cancer of the blood.
