Yes! Genetics first 👇🏻
Parents, if your child is showing signs of global developmental delay, seizures, hypotonia, spasticity, feeding difficulties, missed milestones, or microcephaly, don’t let the system waste your time.
Doctors often want to start with an MRI and delay genetic testing - but that approach can cost you valuable time, better treatment options and community.
Advocate for a Whole Exome Sequencing test first. Request the WES immediately, and while you’re waiting for the results, go ahead and schedule the MRI. The MRI is important, but it won’t give you the genetic answers you need to guide your child’s care and future treatments.
Request a WES - Nothing Less
