2 min readFeb 25, 2019
- You can book an appointment from your home anytime and anywhere. You don’t need to go to a hospital, doctor’s office, or clinic to sit down with someone for an hour and discuss your genetic test results or your family history. You can simply log on to this great big Cloud and video-chat with a genetic counselor from your laptop or phone. It’s convenient, it’s HIPAA-compliant, it’s secure, and it’s on your time table. The telehealth of the future is here — let’s use it!
- You get to choose from a surplus of session options. Are you looking for a cardiovascular genetic counseling session? A neurogenetics focused session? A session focused on pediatrics? A prenatal or family planning session? Your 23andMe results? At Grey Genetics, there are a multitude of specialized sessions available so you can find the right one for you.
- You get to choose your Genetic Counselor. Instead of arbitrarily being assigned to a random counselor and because one Genetic Counselor cannot be specialized in ALL the areas of genetics, Grey Genetics has created a growing Network of certified Genetic Counselors who hold expertise in various fields of genetics. You get to decide who is best for you and book an appointment with the genetic counselor of your choice. You get to pick your doctor, your lawyer, your financial consultant–why shouldn’t you get to pick your genetic counselor too?
- You know exactly what you’re paying for. Grey Genetics is transparent in all its costs. No hidden fees, no hidden agendas. Every session is a set flat-rate and paid out-of-pocket. We always provide receipts that can be taken to your insurance companies for reimbursements, but we do not deal with insurance companies directly.
- You will receive outstanding support. Grey Genetics is committed to communicating and working in tandem with your doctors and healthcare providers — but only second to working with you! We will support you and your decisions and only share your information with your doctor if you give us explicit permission. We will provide you with a bountiful supply of resources and connections to help you stay integrated and informed. We want to support you and assist you in the best way possible as you pursue answers to your genetic past, present, and future.
