Clinical Interests
Ms. Pearlman is a licensed and board-certified genetic counselor who specializes in gastrointestinal cancer genetics. She provides cancer risk assessment and counseling to individuals and families with a history of cancer. Cancer genetic consultation includes discussion of medical history, targeted family history, risk assessment, screening recommendations, and genetic testing as indicated. To schedule an appointment, call 614-293-6694 or toll free at 1-888-329-1654.
Research Interests
Ms. Pearlman’s research interests include hereditary colorectal cancer, Lynch syndrome, early-onset colon cancer, universal germline testing, and somatic tumor testing. She is a co-investigator for the Ohio Prevention and Treatment for Endometrial Cancer (OPTEC) Initiative, a statewide study performing germline testing to identify hereditary cancer syndromes in women with endometrial cancer, as well as tumor testing to potentially impact treatment (2017-2023). She is the principle investigator for the Ohio Colorectal Cancer Prevention Initiative (OCCPI), a large statewide study that performed universal tumor screening for Lynch syndrome and next-generation sequencing for hereditary colon cancer (2013-2017). The OCCPI biorepository is ongoing and accepting proposals for collaborations.
