It’s important for patients to seek consultation with physicians who have experience working with bone marrow failure disease. They have developed an interactive map of physician specialists in bone marrow failure disease who have worked with them in a significant way as speakers, writers, editors, and/or advisors. This map will allow you to search for physicians in your area by location using the zoom-in feature, by zip code, or by disease area utilizing the dropdowns provided below.
