    It’s important that the treatment experience is as personal and comfortable as possible for every family. Our department has its own Family Advisory Council whose input helped bring lots of improvements – like room service, refrigerators, prayer groups, better food, and better access to social support. Making life easier for these families is a huge priority for me. Even sick kids are kids at heart (as I am), just looking for a smile, some fun, a connection with the team members who take care of them. I make it my business to make life better for these kids and their families – as a doctor and through research into promising new drugs. I’m a firm believer in clinical trials. In fact, about 80% of our patients are enrolled in clinical trials through the Nemours Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders, and the Nemours Center for Childhood Cancer Research, where I’m director of both. This number is much higher than for adults with cancer, and much higher for children with other kinds of diseases. We also participate in the national Pediatric Preclinical Testing Program, which makes new therapies available for kids sooner. In our department, participating in clinical trials and research studies is the standard of our family-centered care. Dr. Kolb is rated as an Elite provider by MediFind in the treatment of Leukemia. He is also highly rated in 12 other conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Childhood Acute Myeloid Leukemia, Leukemia, Rhabdomyosarcoma, Osteosarcoma, and Bone Marrow Transplant.

      I am married to a wonderful woman, and we have three adopted boys from Colombia, five cats, and a house full of craziness and love. My kids are the hardest and best part of my day, every day, and seeing them grow and mature into young men makes me grateful to be alive. They are my heart and my soul, and I have no words for that kind of blessing. I have always appreciated the laughter and spontaneity of children, their sweetness, their complexity, and their straightforward way of just trying to get the most fun possible out of life. I really enjoy keeping kids smiling and happy. I was recently invited to the 10-year cancer free anniversary party of one of my patients. What joy to see him grow. That helps keep me going. I am also passionate about our bone marrow transplantation program, both for children with cancer and for children with non-oncologic disease. When I was in college, I had a chance to work in a rural Mexico clinic as a translator. I was inspired by the physicians – they worked so hard, with so little, and made a huge difference for people who had no other chance. Today I enjoy helping families who need Spanish to communicate with their physician. Dr. Powell is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Leukemia.

      As a doctor who treats children with cancer and chronic blood diseases, I don’t just treat the disease itself. I try to help the children and families I care for understand the illness, and find ways to cope so they can make the most of every day. I enjoy helping kids and nurturing them – and forming close relationships with families as they navigate their way through serious illness. Improving a child’s quality of life is one of the most satisfying things we try to do each day, and seeing a child become a productive, happy adult is what we live for. As health care professionals, our mission is to do what’s best for our patients, and that priority comes first. I’m proud that Nemours treats patients without regard to their ability to pay for our services. Dr. Miller is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Leukemia.

      What is the definition of Leukemia?

      Leukemia is a type of blood cancer that begins in the bone marrow. Bone marrow is the soft tissue in the center of the bones, where blood cells are produced.

      The term leukemia means white blood. White blood cells (leukocytes) fight infections and other foreign substances. Leukocytes are made in the bone marrow.

      Leukemia leads to an uncontrolled increase in the number of white blood cells.

      The cancerous cells prevent healthy red cells, platelets, and mature white cells (leukocytes) from being made. Life-threatening symptoms can then develop as normal blood cells decline.

      The cancer cells can spread to the bloodstream and lymph nodes. They can also travel to the brain and spinal cord (the central nervous system) and other parts of the body.

      Leukemia can affect children and adults.

      Leukemias are divided into two major types:

      • Acute (which progresses quickly)
      • Chronic (which progresses more slowly)

      The main types of leukemia are:

      • Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL)
      • Acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
      • Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)
      • Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)

      When should I see a Leukemia doctor near Newark, DE?

      There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

      • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
      • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
      • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
      • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
      • You want a second opinion.  

      What should I consider when choosing a Leukemia doctor near Newark, DE?

      It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

      How does MediFind rank Leukemia doctors near Newark, DE?

      MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

      What types of insurance are accepted by Leukemia doctors near Newark, DE?

      Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

      How can I book an appointment online with a Leukemia doctor near Newark, DE?

      MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Leukemia doctor search results page. 

      Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Leukemia doctor?

      Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

      How can I prepare for my appointment with a Leukemia doctor near Newark, DE?

      Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

      • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
      • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
      • Family history of disease 
      • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
      • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
      • List of questions and concerns 
      • Your insurance card 

      You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

      What questions should I ask my Leukemia doctor?

      Here are some sample questions: 

      • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
      • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
      • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
      • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
      • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

      How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Leukemia doctor may know about?

      MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

      MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

      Can I filter my search to show male or female Leukemia doctors near Newark, DE?

      Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Leukemia doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

      Can I filter my search to find a Leukemia doctor that offers video calls?

      Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Leukemia doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
