Programs and Services

Hemophilia of Georgia offers educational programs, HTC clinical services, and pharmacy services to help meet the needs of the bleeding disorder community. Since bleeding disorders affect not only an individual, but also his or her entire family, HoG offers educational programs for the whole family. Additionally, as part of HoG’s comprehensive care, we offer clinical coordination services enabling medical professionals at the Hemophilia Treatment Center (HTC) to efficiently communicate and collaborate with our pharmacy, nurses, social workers in order to streamline communication and provide the best care possible.
