How are Genetic Disorders Diagnosed?
Genetic Disorders can be diagnosed through a variety of methods, including physical exams, family medical history, and genetic testing. The type of testing used will depend on the specific disorder and the symptoms being experienced.
How are Genetic Disorders Treated?

Who is at Risk for Genetic Disorders?
Anyone can be at risk for a genetic disorder, but some individuals may have a higher risk due to a family history of the condition or personal or family history of chromosomal abnormalities.
