Cancer Genetic Counselling

Cancer genetic counselling is a process where trained professionals help individuals understand their risk of developing cancer based on their family history and genetic factors. Counsellors assess personal and family health histories, discuss relevant genetic tests, and interpret results. They provide guidance on potential preventive measures, early detection strategies, and emotional support. The goal is to empower individuals with knowledge, helping them make informed decisions about their health and clarify options for managing their cancer risk. This supportive process is vital for those with concerns about hereditary cancers.
