Cardiovascular Genetic Counseling

Cardiovascular genetic counseling involves working with individuals or families to understand how genes influence heart and blood vessel health. It helps identify inherited risks for conditions like heart disease, arrhythmias, or genetic syndromes affecting the heart. The counselor reviews family health history, explains genetic testing options, and discusses what the results mean. This information helps guide personalized prevention, management, and screening strategies to reduce the risk of cardiovascular problems. The goal is to empower patients with knowledge about their genetic health and support informed medical decisions.
