Andrew P. Grigg is a Hematologist-Oncologist working in Heidelberg, VIC. His clinic is at 145 Studley Road, Heidelberg, VIC 3084.
Andrew looks after people who have problems with the blood and bone marrow, including blood cancers such as lymphoma and leukaemia. In many cases, he helps manage long-term conditions like chronic lymphocytic leukaemia, chronic myeloid leukaemia, and other myeloproliferative or bone marrow disorders. He also sees patients with more urgent issues, where things can change quickly, like acute leukaemias and febrile neutropenia.
Not every patient is dealing with cancer. Andrew also works with blood count problems and bleeding or clotting issues, including anaemia, thrombocytopenia, immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), and some forms of inherited bleeding disorders. At times, he helps with immune and inflammatory conditions that affect the lungs, liver, or other organs, plus complications around infections that can happen when the immune system is weak.
One important part of his work is treatment planning that may include advanced therapies such as stem cell or bone marrow transplant. He also supports patients through complications like graft versus host disease (GvHD), and the longer follow-up that can come after transplant.
Day to day, his approach is practical. He pays attention to symptoms, blood test results, imaging findings, and how a person is coping. That means he can guide care whether the focus is on controlling disease, easing side effects, or keeping patients safe during chemotherapy and similar treatments.
Experience: the details of how long he has been in practice aren’t listed here, but his work includes managing complex blood and cancer care, including urgent presentations and long follow-up plans.
Education: specific training and study details aren’t shown here.
Research and clinical trials: when appropriate, Andrew may discuss newer treatment options or clinical trials as part of care. Trial details are handled case by case, depending on the patient’s situation.
