Our Services
Outsourced Genetic Counselling Clinics
We provide experienced genetic counsellors who can integrate seamlessly into your existing service, delivering virtual or in-person clinics where required.
Our counsellors support patients across a broad range of specialties, including:
- Hereditary cancer

- Preconception and reproductive genetics
- Rare disease genetics
Our virtual service enables us to support organisations throughout the UK, helping reduce waiting lists and improve patient access without the need for additional permanent staffing.
Pre-Test Genetic Counselling
High-quality pre-test counselling is essential to ensure patients make informed decisions about genetic testing.
Our counsellors help patients understand:
- Why genetic testing has been recommended
- The potential benefits and limitations of testing
- Possible genetic test results
- Medical and family implications
- Privacy, consent and informed decision-making
- Available testing options
We ensure every patient has the information and support needed before proceeding with testing.
Post-Test Counselling and Results Disclosure
Receiving genetic test results can be complex and emotionally challenging.
Our counsellors provide clear, compassionate support by:
- Explaining genetic test results in understandable language
- Discussing clinical significance
- Interpreting inherited risk
- Explaining implications for relatives
- Supporting onward clinical management
- Answering patient questions and concerns
Our focus is not simply explaining a laboratory report, but helping patients understand what their result means for their health and future care.

We work alongside healthcare organisations to design and improve genetic testing pathways.
Our consultancy services include:
- Clinical pathway development

Drawing on extensive NHS clinical genetics experience, we provide practical, evidence-based advice that supports efficient and patient-centred service delivery.
