Abstract:
Perinatal units are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of a genetic counselor in a multidisciplinary team. As such, genetic counselors have the opportunity to contribute to the complex and labor-intensive care of high-risk patients in the perinatal setting. Their role is ever changing to fit this evolving and growing field which, although often difficult and challenging, can also be very rewarding.
