Jennifer Thompson, MS

Jennifer Thompson, MS

Genetic Counselor
IL
Hi, I’m Jen Thompson, MS, CGC – board-certified genetic counselor and founder of HealthyGene. I started HealthyGene because I kept seeing the same problem: people with a family history of cancer falling through the cracks. In hospitals and clinics, I met so many individuals who weren’t referred for genetic counseling – or whose concerns were dismissed altogether. Others had already done genetic testing but still had lingering questions about their results or what to do next.I wanted to change that. I built HealthyGene to offer the kind of support I believe every patient should have: expert guidance that’s compassionate, personalized, and clear. Because when it comes to something as important as cancer risk, you deserve to feel informed and empowered. My mission is simple: to help you understand your risk – and take proactive, potentially life-saving steps to protect your health.
