President's Message

Dr. CHONG Shuk Ching Josephine

Welcome to the website of the Hong Kong Society of Genetic Counselling (HKSGC)! In this era of precision medicine, the approach to disease treatment and prevention have become customised to each and every patient. This approach makes use of the advantages of genetics & genomics technologies with genome sequencing, allowing doctors to adopt the best management for patients and help patients and their families to understand more about their conditions, treatment outcomes and prognosis. To apply the information generated from advanced genetics & genomics tests, medical practitioners, nurses, researches, and allied health professionals should equip themselves with the knowledge of the basis of genetics and genomics, the counselling techniques and strategies. Our society is a non-profitable organisation established by a group of medical professionals who are working in the fields of genetics and genomics. We are dedicated to promoting researches and education to the relevant parties in the healthcare system and providing better medical care to our patients in Hong Kong and other regions. We welcome all medical doctors, nurses, genetic counsellors, laboratory staff, bioinformaticians and students to join us on this journey. We hope that HKSGC gives back to society by pioneering medical care.
