North West Thames Regional Genetic Service

The North West Thames Regional Genetics Service, previously known as the Kennedy-Galton Centre, offers genetic counselling and genetic diagnosis to individuals and families living in the area. We are based at Northwick Park and St Mark's Hospitals, but we also offer outreach clinics in different hospitals across the region.

If you are concerned about your health, the health of a family member, or your family history, you should first speak to your family doctor or GP. They may be able to answer your question, or they may refer you on to our service or another service that can help.
