Abstract

Clinical geneticists are medical doctors that combine general knowledge of medicine with specific expertise in genetics, genetic diagnosis, and genetic aspects of disease. They are specifically trained in communicating the implications of genetic information and genetic disease to patients and their families. In addition, they are trained in syndrome diagnosis and clinical dysmorphology.
