Margaret L P Adam, MD

"What we do in genetics is a lot of diagnostics, putting things together and being able to provide a family with an answer for why their child has specific issues. It's rewarding to provide those answers and give parents an idea of what they can expect in the future. These families want answers, and we work to provide those answers for them."
