Genetic counseling
- Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS) carriers, individuals diagnosed with NBS or individuals who suspect they may have NBS may benefit from genetic counseling. Genetic counselors work with a patient's healthcare team to provide information to patients about their disorders. They also help patients and their families understand the risks of inheriting a condition, their treatment options, and the risks of passing a disorder on to their children.
- Healthcare providers can help patients locate genetic counselors that fit their individual needs.
