What is Anemia?
Severe anemia caused by bone marrow failure conditions such as aplastic anemia or thalassemia major can be permanently cured through a Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT), which replaces the patient's defective marrow with healthy stem cells from a matched donor. This procedure is recommended when the bone marrow is unable to produce sufficient healthy red blood cells despite medical management. India offers world-class BMT units with high success rates at a fraction of Western costs, making it a preferred destination for international patients.
Who may be considered?
Anemia may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.
How does it work?
Stem cells are collected from a fully HLA-matched sibling and infused into the patient after conditioning chemotherapy, offering the highest success rates and lowest complication risk.
Matched Sibling Donor Allogeneic BMT
Most RecommendedStem cells are collected from a fully HLA-matched sibling and infused into the patient after conditioning chemotherapy, offering the highest success rates and lowest complication risk.
Comprehensive Investigations
CBC, Reticulocyte count, Bone marrow aspiration/biopsy, HLA typing (patient and donor), Iron studies, Hemoglobin electrophoresis, Liver and kidney function tests, Viral serology, Chest X-ray, ECG, Echocardiogram

Recovery and follow-up
Full immune recovery after BMT typically takes 6 to 12 months, during which patients need regular blood counts, infection precautions, and monitoring for graft-versus-host disease. Most patients can resume normal activities gradually after the first 3 months if no major complications arise.
Risks
Key risks include graft-versus-host disease, infections due to weakened immunity, graft failure, and organ toxicity from conditioning chemotherapy. Careful donor matching and specialized post-transplant care significantly reduce these risks.
Alternatives
For patients without a suitable donor or unfit for transplant, alternatives include regular blood transfusions with iron chelation therapy, immunosuppressive therapy for aplastic anemia, or growth factor support, though these are generally not curative.

How we selected these doctors
A doctor appears on this page when their listed specialty maps to Hematology and their profile names anemia (or a matching term) among the procedures they perform. Doctors are not ranked by a proprietary "best" score — the order follows years of listed experience (highest first), the same field shown on each doctor's profile. This page does not display aggregate star ratings.

anemia is listed among the doctor's procedures or areas of expertise, using matching terms where appropriate.
Hospital affiliation
The doctor is currently affiliated with a recognised hospital in the GAF directory. Hospital details and availability can change, so confirm them before booking.
Professional experience
Experience is displayed from the doctor's available professional profile and is used as the ordering signal when the page lists doctors.

Doctor and hospital information is checked against the records available to GAF and updated when new information is supplied. It is not a substitute for confirming credentials directly.
No paid ranking
