Before the move, the Section Clinical Genetics was spread over four locations: three at AMC and one at VUmc. This caused many logistical challenges and made it difficult to work together optimally as one integrated team.
The new location offers workplaces for medical specialists, medical residents, physician assistants, interns, researchers, physician assistants, genetic counselors, social workers, case managers, outpatient secretaries, genealogy staff, the quality advisor, the project officer, staff secretary, and section leaders. There is a spacious waiting room, six consultation rooms (with more planned), multi-purpose shared rooms, a conference room, a large lunchroom, and a beautiful cinema meeting room with large screens for onsite/offsite discussions. After completion, call rooms will also be available for telephone and video consultations with patients.
