Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Understand the question by identifying the key term 'blood disorders' and recognize that the problem is asking for a specialist who diagnoses and treats these conditions.
Step 2: Recall the definitions of the listed specialists: a hematologist specializes in blood disorders, a cardiologist focuses on heart and blood vessel conditions, a neurologist deals with nervous system disorders, and an immunologist specializes in immune system diseases.
Step 3: Match the term 'blood disorders' with the correct specialist based on the definitions. The term 'hematology' refers to the study of blood, blood-forming organs, and blood diseases.
Step 4: Eliminate the incorrect options (cardiologist, neurologist, immunologist) as they do not specialize in blood disorders.
Step 5: Conclude that the correct specialist for diagnosing and treating blood disorders is a hematologist.
