Genetic factors contribute to the spectrum of paediatric disorders, ranging from developmental disability; autism; congenital abnormities; hearing and vision impairment; neuromuscular, renal, liver, endocrine and metabolic diseases and childhood obesity.

At Primary Care Genetics, extensive paediatric diagnostic experience combined with access to a wide array of clinical resources can provide an expert opinios on children with potential genetic disorders, be they multi-system disorders or conditions that affect a single organ.

In many instances we can test through the less invasive means of finger pricking or salivary samples, minimising the trauma for young children.

DNA testing for genetic diseases can be arranged upon request. We use only accredited genetic diagnostic laboratories and offer a quick turnaround and clear cost agreements.
