Residents will participate in daily ward rounds, outpatient clinics, and consult services, with opportunities for hands-on procedures such as bone marrow aspirate/biopsy. The service also offers multidisciplinary collaboration with transfusion medicine and hemato-oncology.

First Day of Rotation

Residents should report to the Hematology Office at Amiri Hospital on the first day of the rotation, located on the 7th floor next to Ward 18, where they will meet the hematology team and receive orientation regarding the rotation workflow, responsibilities, and teaching activities.

Suggested Learning Resources

Residents are encouraged to review reputable hematology references during the rotation, including ASH clinical practice guidelines, British Society for Haematology guidelines(BCSH), ISTH guidelines on thrombosis and hemostasis, and disease-specific guidelines for hemoglobinopathies and bleeding disorders.
UpToDate may also be used as a quick reference during daily clinical work.
