How Do Geneticists Work with Other Healthcare Providers?
Geneticists often collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to ensure comprehensive care:
Neonatologists: Specialists in newborn care who often first identify potential genetic issues. Pediatricians: Provide ongoing care and follow-up for neonates diagnosed with genetic disorders. Nurses: Play a vital role in the day-to-day management and support of affected infants and their families. Therapists: Including physical, occupational, and speech therapists who help manage developmental challenges.
