“Today's healthcare consumer wants solutions outside the traditional clinical setting, including well-care and preventative options. Genetic counselors, due to their unique expertise, have proven invaluable as product development partners to ensure new care solutions. Not only do we need more genetic counselors, but we need to be creative about additional ways to expand the workforce to support the growth of these solutions.”
