Expertise in Genetic Heart Conditions
Experts Shaping Genetic Heart Care
Our team includes geneticists, genetic counselors and cardiologists. They serve on professional societies that help advance the field. Their expertise supports families facing congenital heart disease, cardiomyopathy, aortic dilation, high cholesterol and sudden cardiac arrest. The number of patients we see continues to grow, showing the need for specialized cardiovascular genetics care.
Advanced Genetic Testing and Counseling
We use a wide range of advanced genetic testing options to help find genetic causes of heart conditions. Genetic testing may include targeted gene analysis, multi-gene panels, chromosome testing, whole genome sequencing, and emerging technologies such as long-read sequencing. Genetic counselors explain what testing can and cannot tell your family. Testing may help identify family members who could also be at risk. It can also guide treatment, follow-up care and future health decisions.
Care Within Reach
Families can receive care through telehealth or in-person visits. Our team is licensed in multiple states, making genetic counseling more accessible across the region. Families may receive care from the team without traveling to Cincinnati for every visit. Telehealth is especially useful for genetic counseling and follow-up care.
Personalized Care for Your Family
We review your child’s heart condition and your family history together. This helps our team recommend testing and care based on your family’s needs. Our goal is to help you understand health risks, possible treatment needs and what may happen in the future. We support patients from prenatal care through adulthood. We can also discuss risks for current and future family members.
