Our program is designed to assist you and your family in navigating the world of genetics medicine. We provide information and support to help you make informed decisions about your health and the health of your family.

What To Expect at Your Visit 

A thorough evaluation including questions about your/ your child’s medical history, obtaining a family history and a comprehensive physical examination.

Genetic Counseling – Our genetic counselors are here to support and guide you and your family helping you approach genetic healthcare decisions in a way that best aligns with your priorities and values.

Genetic Testing – If indicated, we may discuss the option of genetic testing. Genetic testing is typically done on blood or (in some cases) cheek swab samples. Some tests require obtaining prior authorization from your insurance company- if needed our office staff will work with your insurance company for authorization.

Continuity of Care – You will have access to a team of healthcare professionals who specialize in genetics and can provide you with personalized care and support.
