Basser Center Genetic Counselor Dana Farengo Clark, MS, LCGC, helps to explain BRCA mutations and the process of genetic testing and counseling with Health Central. She discusses who should consider testing, what the testing process itself is like, common misconceptions, and why testing is important if you think you might be at risk. "Some people are reluctant to get tested because they’re scared about a positive result. But knowing if you have the mutation can help you, and help your family, to feel empowered about making decisions that affect your health, long-term."
