Today we celebrate Genetic Counselors! πŸ’š
On November 13, we honor the brilliant minds and compassionate hearts who help patients navigate the complexities of DNA, family history, and medical decisions with clarity and care.

Whether it’s decoding a complex result or comforting a family, genetic counselors blend knowledge, empathy, and advocacy in every conversation.

What is WIGCA?

Wisconsin Genetic Counselors Association (WIGCA) welcomes all genetic counselors, other allied professionals, and students in the state of Wisconsin to advocate for the advancement of the genetic counseling profession as well as to increase engagement with the communities in which we serve.
