Patient Worthy is delighted to announce that the National Society of Genetic Counselors (NSGC) has joined us as an advocacy partner!

Genetic counselors play a critical role for individuals, families, and physicians who are dealing with rare disease risks and diagnoses. They can suggest genetic testing panels, help understand risk, and turn dense genetic data into recommendations for action.

Genetic counselors help guide people through their options for testing, treatment, and surveillance with the respect that everyone deserves, while protecting their confidentiality and helping them make the best decision for themselves and their family.

Having timely access to a genetic counselor is incredibly important to our rare families, and we look forward to supporting genetic counselors and their contributions to the 30 million readers of Patient Worthy.
