If you or your loved one has a genetic condition such as an inherited disorder or birth defect, you know the importance of easy access to services, lab work, and support systems. You also know you need quality care from skilled clinicians who understand the complexities of genetics.
Fullerton Genetics Center offers the only genetic services in Western North Carolina. We provide services in clinical genetics, genetics laboratory, and education and outreach programs.
In the past, you had to travel to Charlotte, Winston-Salem, or across state lines for evaluation and counseling. The vision of Dr. Olson Huff, Dr. Ellen Boyd, Bob Burgin, and others helped create Memorial Mission Hospital's clinical genetics operation in 1993. It was renamed Fullerton Genetics Center to honor the Fullerton Foundation's contributions.
Our genetics staff evaluates and counsels pediatric, prenatal, and adult patients through referrals in both outpatient and inpatient settings throughout Western North Carolina.
