Our highly trained genetic counselors can evaluate your risk of getting cancer and suggest lifestyle changes based on your family history.

A simple screening test can catch many of these cancers early on.Early detection through screening leads to greater survival rates for breast, colorectal, lung and cervical cancer. Another bonus: If doctors find the cancer in its early stages, you may have the option of having less invasive treatments.ScreeningConditions/Services/Treatments PageAccording to the American Cancer Society, one in three people in the U.S. will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime.

- Tips for Finding a Doula1. Start looking early in your pregnancyChoosing a doula early in your pregnancy will give you time to get to know each other and get comfortable with your birth plan.2. Talk to other familiesTalking with friends who have used a doula about their experience can help you start and even narrow your search. Technology – Facebook groups, a Google search for other online groups and forums – can connect you with other moms in your area.3. Talk with the provider who’s caring for you during your pregnancyLet your doctor or midwife know you’re planning on having a doula as part of your labor and delivery team. And if your provider has worked with a doula in the past, they may be able to offer a recommendation.4. Check with doula certification programsMost programs offer national, and even global, online directories of certified doulas that you can search by location.5. Interview potential doulasYou not only want to gather important information about them and their background, but you also need to get a feel for whether your personalities are a good fit.6. Know your Healthcare CoverageReach out to your insurance provider to see if they cover the cost of having a doula by your side during childbirth. Also, don’t forget about your HSA/FSA accounts– they may chip in to help cover those expenses, giving you some extra peace of mind during this special time.7. Trust your gutWhen you choose someone to provide any service, there’s no doubt experience and technical skills are must-haves. But soft skills, such as communication, empathy and teamwork, come into play too. Pay attention to how you connect with and feel when you’re with them.
