WHY PARTNER WITH US
Genetic counseling your patients can actually access
Patients can wait months or years for a genetic appointment through hospital systems. Empower Genetics was built to fill that gap, providing expert, board-certified genetic counseling with appointment available in 1-2 weeks, and no strict referral requirements.
We're not here to replace your care. We're here to extend it and send your patients back to you with clearer answers and a better plan.
Fast access for your patients
Appointments within 1-2 weeks. No waitlists, no strict referral criteria. Your patient gets genetic information when they need it.
Telehealth improves access
Patients can join their appointment from home, work, or wherever is most convenient. No travel and time off work means fewer barriers to following through.
You stay in the loop
After your patient meets with us, we send you a clinical report, genetic test results, and surveillance and management recommendations.
Direct line for referred patients
Once you've referred a patient, reach the genetic counselor directly by phone or email with specific questions about their results and care.
GENETICS CONSULTS FOR PROVIDERS
Expert genetic guidance, without a full referral
Your patients bring you genetic test results, family history questions, and at-home DNA reports. Not every question needs a full genetics referral. Sometimes you just need a genetic counselor to look at the case and help you decide the next step.
HOW IT WORKS
1
Send your question
Submit your case through our secure form along with relevant history, results, and your question.
2
We review the case
A board-certified genetic counselor reviews the details and sends a clear, practical written response within 2 business days.
3
Decide the next step
Use the guidance to order the most appropriate test, interpret a result, or decide whether a full genetic counseling referral would be beneficial for your patient.
