Dena Goldberg, MS, CGC (Dena DNA)
Hi! I’m Dena, a board-certified genetic counselor and the creator behind Dena DNA. I’m here to make genetic testing make sense and explain what it can (and can’t) tell you, how it works today, and why it might matter for your health or your family.
I create my videos to help you feel more informed and empowered when it comes to genetics. Whether you’re curious, confused, or somewhere in between, you’re in the right place!
Check out my Instagram, TikTok and website DenaDNA.com for more resources, and follow along for new episodes!
Thanks for being here. I hope you’ll subscribe and stay awhile.
Thanks,
Dena
