Gaucher Disease

Heritage & Tradition May Not Be All That You've Been Handed . . .

Gaucher Disease is a genetic disorder handed down from generation to generation.

It is most common among persons of Jewish, Eastern and Central European ancestry, but individuals from any ethnic group may be affected.

If you have a positive family history or qualified symptoms, free testing may be available. Please contact the Albany Medical Center Referral Line at 1-800-456-9900 before things get out of hand.

Albany Medical Center is the only academic health sciences center in the 25 counties of eastern New York and western New England. It unites the many programs of Albany Medical Center Hospital and Albany Medical College.
