The science and practice of testing for Huntington's disease
Where does genetic testing occur?
There are over 75 established Huntington’s disease testing centers across the country. At these genetic clinics, neurologists, genetic counselors, psychiatrists, and psychologists guide an individual through the genetic testing process. Many of these centers are associated with state universities, while others are affiliated with private hospitals and clinics. Each center has its own guidelines regarding specific testing procedures and policies. The Huntington’s Disease Society of America (HDSA) publishes a complete list of testing centers.
