Should I Consult A Hematologist As I Have Been Diagnosed With My Second DVT?

Hi - I have just been diagnosed with my second DVT. Should I be looking for a Hematologist? To do so was suggested to me but most also specialize in Oncology and work at cancer centers. This seems strange to me or that Hematology may be a secondary interest.
