What this resource offers

UMMC’s Paediatric Genetic Unit describes itself as a referral centre for clinical genetics and metabolic medicine. It publishes diagnostic and management services, plus genetic counselling for inpatients and outpatients with inherited conditions. Start by asking the treating clinician whether a referral is appropriate and what reports should accompany it. Confirm referral criteria, appointment arrangements and whether the service can address the family’s current question.

Helpful questions for your next conversation

  • Can genetic counselling help us understand this result and its family implications?
  • Which genetic, pregnancy or birth records should we bring to the first visit?
