 The service is currently provided by a staff of four Consultant Clinical Geneticists, two specialist registrars in genetics, six genetic nurse specialists/counsellors, with one trainee genetic counsellor completed her training and another trainee just appointed. Ten support staff have an integral role in maintaining the smooth running of the service.
