WHY GENETIC COUNSELING?
You don't need to become an expert in genetics. You just need an expert who can explain it.
Genetic testing has become increasingly accessible. Direct-to-consumer testing, expanded carrier screening, embryo testing, prenatal screening, and large genetic panels can generate an enormous amount of information.
More information doesn't always mean more clarity.
A genetic counselor can help you
Understand
What your results actually mean.
Interpret
The significance—and limitations—of genetic testing.
Personalize
Your information based on your own medical and family history.
Decide
Whether additional testing may be useful.
Prepare
For conversations with your physician, fertility specialist, or other healthcare providers.
