Patient-centered care at the highest level
Everyone has the right to a medical consultation before any diagnostic procedure. Both public and private insurance cover these consultations.
Genetic counseling is a detailed conversation between a patient and a specialist in human genetics. During this discussion, questions about hereditary diseases are addressed, and tailored information is provided. Counseling is available not only to patients diagnosed with a condition but also to relatives concerned about carrying or developing a hereditary disease. (Expectant) parents can also seek advice to understand the likelihood of passing on genetic conditions. The consulting physician is a specialist in human genetics and therefore a specialist in hereditary diseases, hereditary modalities and scientific approaches to diagnosis and treatment.
The consultation begins with an exploration of the individual’s and their family’s medical history, often resulting in the creation of a family tree. Previous findings from other specialists can streamline this process, and we encourage patients to send relevant medical documents all family members in advance to help the doctor prepare effectively. A key part of the consultation is addressing the patient’s specific questions. Should the patient proceed with molecular genetic testing, this can typically be done via a simple blood sample.
