Genetic Counseling Support

Genetic counseling plays a significant role in the success of a prenatal testing program. The demand for genetic counseling and the need for support in understanding the risk for genetic disorders will continue to increase as more genetic tests become available. GenPath® offers reproductive post-test results counseling to help our clients provide patients with a better understanding of their genetic test results.

Every patient that receives reproductive genetic testing from GenPath can receive a results-focused counseling session with a genetic counselor who will:

  • Help clarify what test results may mean for the patient and their family
  • Provide individualized follow-up recommendations based on test results, medical history, and family history information
  • Provide psychosocial support and resources such as literature and support group information

To be scheduled for an appointment to review results, GenPath must receive a written referral form from the ordering provider. The referral form can be downloaded here.

Please contact GenPath at 1-800-633-4522 for more information about our genetic counseling services. Information about local genetic counseling services is also available at https://findageneticcounselor.nsgc.org/.
