How Genetic Counseling Works
Genetic counseling is a service available to patients in the U.S. and Canada that provides information and support for patients who have, or may be at risk for, genetic conditions. Genetic counselors are trained healthcare professionals who can discuss genetics, inheritance, and disease risk, as well as the benefits, limitations, and potential implications of genetic testing.
