Our partnership is our strength
Treating sickle cell disease (SCD) is more than just treating acute complications. Treating SCD today means seeing the whole person and considering their lifelong goals. Monitoring for underlying progressive damage and managing overall health are crucial for optimal care. With a comprehensive and long-term approach to care,
we can create a different future together.
Partnership is at the core of
bringing progress to SCD
Patients want somebody they can trust. We have to hold our hands out. We have to come honestly. We have to come patiently. It’s why we need partnerships based on trust, so we can get to a place where we can move forward together.”

At bluebird bio, we believe that partnership can change the way people think about SCD, and feel that partnership is the way forward—partnership between physicians and people living with SCD, partnership between the SCD community and industry, and partnership that includes all of us.
