These videos are not a substitute for individual genetic counseling. Each family and person is unique, but hopefully this information will help you learn about hereditary cancer and motivate you to discuss your own history with a genetic counselor, nurse, or doctor. I'm a board-certified genetic counselor working in the area of hereditary cancer since 2002. With the continued expansion of genetic testing for hereditary cancer, such as BRCA1 and BRCA2 testing, it is more important than ever for people to have accurate information about inherited cancer and genetic testing.
