Genetic Consultation and Testing

Our clinic offers comprehensive genetic counseling and genetic testing.  We offer prenatal testing and counseling to discuss the inheritance pattern so that families can make informed reproductive choices.  Once pregnant, our physician genetic counselor can review your family history, discuss the risks of your baby being affected by a particular genetic disorder, and discuss the available testing options.  If you choose, the physician genetic counselor will order the appropriate blood tests or work in conjunction with your high-risk obstetrician to obtain an ultrasound, amniocentesis, or chorionic villus sampling.

Contact us for an appointment.
