Joseph Dresner Family Clinic for Hematologic Malignancies & Stem Cell Transplantation

The Joseph Dresner Family Clinic for Hematologic Malignancies & Stem Cell Transplantation enables efficient and coordinated care for patients seen by both the Malignant Hematology and Stem Cell and Bone Marrow Transplant multidisciplinary teams. 

Patients with multiple myeloma, amyloidosis, leukemia, lymphoma and similar cancers have efficient, one-stop access to Karmanos experts who specialize in treating those diseases. All doctors involved are able to see patients simultaneously, as well as create and implement joint treatment plans. 

The Clinic will also allow Karmanos to expand its future cancer research and clinical trials focusing on leukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The center is located at Karmanos’ midtown campus in Detroit.

The Dresner Clinic is made possible by a generous $5 million gift by the late Joseph Dresner, who was diagnosed with MDS in 2002. He passed away in January 2012. 

Directions

The Clinic is located on the second floor of the Karmanos Cancer Center’s main campus in midtown Detroit. If you are a new patient, please check in at the patient registry in the main lobby of the Karmanos Cancer Center, just beyond valet parking. If you are a returning patient, enter Karmanos and follow the signs to the Dresner Family Clinic.
