Clinical Responsibilities
Clinical genetic services at New York University Hospitals offer the diagnosis and management of genetic diseases. Two physicians and six genetic counselors cover all the areas of medical genetics. We see patients with pregnancy related genetic issues, pediatric genetic syndromes, adult genetic diseases, genetic predisposition to cancer and carrier testing for genetic diseases.

Since my training years, my interest has been the unusual or partial presentations of genetic syndromes. I acknowledge the power of a gene mutation to change many biological functions and induce devastating disease. However, I think that the complexity of the human goes a long way in modifying the consequences of a genetic alteration to the point that a genetic disease differs from individual to individual. I am interested in these differences because they frequently show us the path to treatment.
