Physical Therapists

Some blood disorders, such as hemophilia, are better managed when patients work with a physical therapist to practice safe, healthy movement.

Genetic Counselors

Genetic counselors are licensed professionals with masters-level training in genetic counseling, which includes advanced training in clinical genetics and counseling. If you or your child has been diagnosed with a condition that has a genetic basis, or if there is a family history of a hereditary condition, you may meet with a genetic counselor to review your family’s medical history, learn about options for genetic testing, review genetic test results and review what this information means for you, your child and your family members.
