Medical Genetics

Your genes play a key role in the development of many diseases. Without knowing it, you or a family member may be at risk if you have a genetic disorder, birth defect, chromosomal abnormality or cancer.

With the help of the area’s only full-time licensed medical geneticist, Carle Clinic can provide you with the insight to make informed healthcare decisions. You’ll learn about the benefits, risks and limitations of genetic testing from one of our board certified genetic counselors, plus get valuable information about a suspected disease.
