The NYU Human Genetics Program provides genetic evaluation, counseling, and screening services to couples before and during a pregnancy, as well as to adults and parents of children with suspected genetic diseases or susceptibilities.

Medical Genetics Evaluation
The goal of a medical genetics consultation is to identify the cause childhood and adult disorders, whether hereditary or not, and to initiate appropriate diagnostic and/or treatment regimens.

Reproductive Genetic Counseling
The goal of a reproductive genetic consultation is to aid in identifying a cause for an observed abnormality and to provide a more precise estimate for your chances to conceive a normal baby. This might involve genetic testing.

Carrier Testing
In the past, people learned about their risk for having affected children only after the child was born. Through genetic testing, it is possible to identify people whose children may be at increased risk.
