Babies born with differences in body structure, brain development, or body chemistry can have problems with health and development, school performance, or social interaction. Pediatric geneticists can help you understand your child’s condition, underlying causes (if known), and how to manage the effects and symptoms.

Genetics experts at University of Miami Health System specialize in providing comprehensive diagnosis, management, and treatment for genetic conditions. We use a compassionate, family-centered approach to give you and your child the care and support you need.
