Cyndy Murray, MS, CGC

Cyndy’s interest in genetic counseling is a personal one. It began when her grandmother was diagnosed with cancer, and since then, she has been driven to help others understand their health risks and options. Initially, she had an interest in cancer research, however, soon found that her passion was in education, counseling and patient advocacy. Her decision to work in oncology genetic counseling was solidified while working in a genetics laboratory the year before BRCA1, the first breast cancer gene, was discovered. Cyndy’s special interests are in breast and prostate cancer genetics.I am passionate about preventative care and assisting in medical decisions tailored to the individual needs and situation of each patient. There is no ’one size fits all’ approach, and with the right information, each person can make an informed decision about the right course for them.
