TASMANIAN CLINICAL GENETIC SERVICE

The Tasmanian Clinical Genetics Service (TCGS) provides a clinical service for the diagnosis, management, counselling and support of individuals and families with a wide range of genetic disorders. The TCGS is staffed by Genetic Counsellors, who are based at the Royal Hobart Hospital, and by Clinical Geneticists, contracted from the Royal Children’s Hospital and the Peter MacCallum Hospital in Melbourne, who visit Tasmania to conduct monthly clinics in conjunction with the genetic counsellors.
