Pediatric Oncology and Hematology

Beaumont Children's pediatric oncology and hematology specialists offer comprehensive diagnosis and treatment for infants, children, adolescents and young adults with nearly every type of childhood cancer or blood disorder. Our specialists offer the most advanced approaches to treatment of these conditions, while never losing sight of the compassionate patient and family-centered care that is the hallmark of all we do.

In 2017, we opened the doors to the Skandalaris Treatment Family Center for Children with Cancer and Blood Disorders. Conveniently located on the campus of Corewell Health William Beaumont University Hospital, on the second floor of the Proton Therapy Center, our pediatric oncology and hematology program features a child-friendly atmosphere and includes a full-service outpatient infusion area where patients can receive transfusions and chemotherapy treatments. Our short-stay clinic offers patients the ability to complete treatment throughout the day and evening hours without having to stay overnight or return in the morning.

In addition to the latest approaches and technology, Beaumont pediatric oncologists and hematologists are committed to offering each patient personalized care and unparalleled compassion in a convenient and friendly atmosphere designed with families in mind.
