Children and adults living with coagulation or platelet disorders/congenital disorders of any severity can access this service. We are also offer assistance or advice for acquired cases of bleeding disorder too .  

What do we do?

Our services include:

  • Annual clinic reviews
  • Prompt bleeding advice
  • Treatment
  • Rehabilitation
  • Surgical protocols
  • Dental
  • Genetic Counselling.

We have a patient-centred approach for these lifelong conditions, with the purpose to improve outcomes and quality of life. We diagnose and manage all bleeding treatments . Which includes home therapy,  education to patients & carers. We also work closely with different departments within our hospital, that we may refer you to. However, if require further visits, for example a series of appointments with your physiotherapist, you may be asked to attend either:

  • Greenlane Clinical Centre – Physiotherapy Outpatients, Level 1, Building 7 (Adults)
  • Starship Children’s Health – Children’s Therapy, Level 3 (Children).

Reporting a bleeding episode

Because we aim to offer a high-quality service that provides the best possible outcome for our patients, we want to know about every bleeding episode as soon as possible.

For the team to provide rapid assessment and treatment, it is essential that every bleeding episode is reported as soon as possible , prefeably within 24 hours of onset.

We know that the sooner we can assess and treat a bleed, the better the outcome for our patients. We also know that delayed reporting of bleeds can mean that a patient experiences more pain, may be off work for a longer time or may be at an increased risk of long-term joint damage and disability.

You can report your bleed directly to the Haemophilia Centre by calling 0211954262 or by email. Hours

Mon - Fri: 8:00am - 4:30pm

For urgent advice outside of these hours, call Auckland City Hospital on (09) 379 7440 and ask for the on-call haematology registrar.
