Abstract:
Genetic counseling involves educating at-risk patients or their close relatives about the occurrence of genetic diseases, their likelihood, and treatment, including ways to prevent or cure them. Counsellors will discuss the genetics and treatment of the disease, as well as the personal, familial, social and insurance implications. Additional diagnostic procedures, such as genetic testing, may be recommended to better understand risks or confirm the diagnosis.
