Role you're checking

Hematologist

Healthcare

Hematologists in India are the specialists for leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, thalassemia, hemophilia, and bone-marrow failure syndromes — a field whose complexity has exploded with bone-marrow transplantation (BMT), CAR-T cell therapy, and targeted molecular agents. The training ladder is MBBS → MD General Medicine (NEET-PG / INI-CET) → DM Hematology (NEET-SS / DrNB) — an 11.5-year pipeline before independent consultant practice, with DM Hematology seats among the most limited in Indian super-specialty medicine. Top workplaces are Tata Memorial Hospital (Mumbai), AIIMS Delhi, Christian Medical College Vellore, Apollo Hospitals, and Yashoda Hospitals Hyderabad, where BMT programmes run autologous and allogeneic transplants including haploidentical grafts. CAR-T cell therapy entered Indian clinical practice in 2024 (IIT Bombay / ImmunoACT axicabtagene for ALL / DLBCL), making hematology the Indian specialty with the fastest-evolving treatment arsenal in 2026. Hematologists in India manage a dual burden that is uncommon globally: a high absolute load of hemoglobinopathies (2.5 lakh beta-thalassemia births per year) and hemophilia alongside the full spectrum of haematological malignancies — requiring mastery of both curative intent protocols (ELN / iwAML / NCCN induction, allogeneic BMT, EBMT conditioning protocols) and chronic disease management.
