Statement on Dr Mischa Brozovic

The Sickle Cell Society were deeply saddened to hear of the passing away of Dr Mischa Brozovic. Dr Brozovic was a pioneer for sickle cell in the UK, working as a Consultant Haematologist at Central Middlesex Hospital.

In 1979, along with Professor Dame Elizabeth Anionwu, Dr Brozovic set up the first UK nurse-led sickle cell and thalassaemia information, screening and counselling centre in Brent, North West London.

We are so thankful for all her contributions to sickle cell and our thoughts are with her friends and family during this difficult time.
