You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / A Look at the Rising Field of Genetic Counseling
Published: March 5, 2023 by RHJ Producer

Counselors like Kevin Sweet and Colleen Jodarski become health investigators, sifting through a patient’s family history to compile a complete look at their risk factors. Our experts explain how to know if you need to see a genetic counselor.
