The Disadvantages of Testing for Von Willebrand Disease in the Primary Care Clinic
I remember vividly in the last episode, I said that I wanted to be a good primary care hematologist and wanted to diagnose von Willebrand. You had some hesitancy in saying that this should be done in a primary care office. Can you talk a little bit about what are the reasons for maybe pushing off doing this von Wille Brand panel in the primary care clinic? Sure. testing is complex. And I think difficult because it's affected by a lot of extrinsic factors that don't necessarily mean you don't have von WilleBrand's disease.
