Some individuals are born with a tendency to bleed without significant triggers. There are many new therapies emerging that can help these patients that need testing and evaluation of how well they work to improve bleeding problems in these individuals. I am interested in not only assessing how well they work but what the impact of better treatment has on these individuals’ daily lives.
