Our staff includes a medical doctor, board eligible by the American Board of Medical Genetics, who diagnoses, treats and counsels patients and their families with genetic disorders. The medical doctor is supported by a board certified doctoral scientist for chromosome analysis in our on-site cytogenetics laboratory. We also have staff genetics counselors who provide education and counseling to the patients and their families. We also have a doctoral genetics research scientist.
The cytogenetics laboratory provides a full range of cytogenetics testing including conventional cytogenetics analysis and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH).
Patients are seen in the Pediatric Specialty Clinic.
The telephone number is (252) 744-2525.
