Genetic counseling is the process by which the patients or relatives at risk of an inherited disorder are advised of the consequences and nature of the disorder, the probability of developing or transmitting it, and the options open to them in management and family planning.
This complex process can be separated into diagnostic (the actual estimation of risk) and supportive aspects.
A Genetic Counselor is available to you to as part of Fort Worth Perinatal Associates services.
