It is difficult to determine what exactly will be discussed with each visit; however, you will want to be prepared to discuss the medical history of the referred individual as well as the family history. Pediatric patients will frequently also have a brief physical exam. Any recommended or offered testing will be thoroughly discussed before being initiated. You may also wish to review our patient information brochure, Preparing for Your Genetic Visit.
Patients may be referred for a genetics evaluation for a variety of reasons.
Pediatric patients may be referred because their physician is concerned that there is a genetic background to the patient’s symptoms (usually developmental delay, autism, growth problems, abnormal testing, etc).
Prenatal patients may be referred to discuss the options for prenatal testing, your family history, or previous test results.
Cancer clinic referrals may be due to a personal and/or family history of cancer.
The genetic counselor or geneticist that will meet with you will be happy to further explain the reason(s) for your specific referral. You may also wish to discuss this further with your physician who made the referral.
Appointments for a genetics visit require a referral from a healthcare provider. Discuss any questions with your provider and they can set up an appointment for you.
