Genetic Counselor
Vacation More - Work Less
Welcome to Genetic Counselor. Genetic Counselor provides genetic counselor articles, videos, and conversations in an easily accessible website.
A genetic counselor is a genetics specialist who most often has acquired a master of science degree. In the United States, genetic counselors are certified by an organization – the American Board of Genetic Counseling. Entrance into this organization is very stringent.
Most genetic counselors have backgrounds in biology, genetics, nursing, psychology, public health and social work. Genetic counselors are expert educators, skilled in translating the complex language of genomic medicine into terms that are easy to understand by the layperson.
Genetic counselors work as members of a health care team and act as a patient advocate as well as a genetic resource to physicians. They provide helpful information and support to families who have members with birth defects or genetic disorders, or are at risk for a variety of inherited conditions.
Thank you for visiting and supporting Genetic Counselor. Also, please check out the two new sections we have recently added to genetic counselor – “Ask the Experts”, as well as the fast paced z “Blogette”.
