Get to know Emily Soludczyk, MS
I am passionate about educating individuals and families in order to allow them to be strong advocates for their own health. As a pediatric genetic counselor, I work alongside our team to help uncover possible genetic predispositions to cardiovascular disease and to communicate this information in a way that is easy to understand. The journey to receiving genetic diagnosis can be overwhelming for families. I aim to work closely with my families to help identify informational, emotional, and psychosocial needs, while also guiding them through the medical and familial implications of genetic predispositions to cardiovascular disease.
