Cancer can happen to anyone. But some people face a higher risk for certain cancers due to genetic abnormalities that are passed down in families (hereditary cancer). Cancer genetics experts at the Cancer Institute help you learn more about your risk and what we can do to preserve your well-being. A visit to the Cancer Risk and Genetic Assessment Program at Lehigh Valley Cancer Institute may include a visit with a board-certified genetic counselor who will meet with you and provide you with ongoing support throughout your risk assessment process.
