Medical genetics is the branch of medicine concerned with how hereditary and genetic factors play a role in causing a disease, birth defects, or inherited susceptibility to a health problem. The Division of Medical Genetics offers comprehensive evaluation and treatment for known or suspected inherited disorders.
Our clinical team includes three board-certified geneticists, two nurse practitioners, four board-certified genetic counselors, and two metabolic dietitians who serve the adult, pediatric, and prenatal patient populations of Mississippi.
