Christine Cserti-Gazdewich completed her training in internal medicine and hematology in Toronto, followed by a fellowship in transfusion medicine at the Harvard Joint Program in Boston.

She has worked in Toronto since her return in October 2006, and at the University Health Network, she serves primarily as a transfusion medicine specialist with a cross-appointment as a clinical haematologist (outpatient clinics, inpatient consults, & apheresis).

Professional activities focus on transfusion immunohematology and hemovigilance locally, with interests in the hematology and hemotherapy of malaria and/or severe anemia in less developed regions.

Through the Laboratory Medicine Program, she and her transfusion medicine colleagues from the UHN and Sunnybrook also serve as remote medical directors to a number of hospitals (32 medical outposts with 22 performing transfusion care through 11 transfusion medicine laboratories).
