Reproductive Medicine
Genetic testing provides valuable information to patients experiencing infertility, but knowing information isn’t the same as understanding it.

Metis provides the appropriate education and counseling for couples interested in carrier screening, preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) and preimplantation genetic screening (PGS).
