About
Dr. Mohmmad Al-Shinnag is a skilled clinical geneticist specialising in developmental delay, intellectual disability, and neurodevelopmental disorders. With a commitment to understanding the genetic factors underlying these conditions, he employs advanced genetic testing methods, including whole exome sequencing and whole genome sequencing, to investigate and diagnose children facing developmental delay, intellectual disability, and complex health issues.
His comprehensive services include clinical assessment for identifying underlying genetic conditions and providing clinical and molecular diagnoses for affected children. Dr. Al-Shinnag also plays a crucial role in genetic counselling, offering valuable advice on the risk of genetic conditions recurring within families. He assists individuals and couples in reproductive planning, providing insights and guidance for future pregnancies based on their genetic profiles. Moreover, he offers expert guidance on managing these conditions once a diagnosis is established.
Dr. Al-Shinnag holds prestigious fellowships with the Royal Australasian College of Physicians and the Human Genetics Society of Australasia. He serves as a staff specialist at the clinical genomics unit at St Vincent's Hospital Sydney. He completed physician training at the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital (RBWH) and advanced training in clinical genetics at Genetic Health Queensland across various hospitals.
The diagnostic genetics services offered by Dr. Al-Shinnag and his team include clinical assessments, investigation reviews, and genetic testing aimed at establishing accurate diagnoses. These diagnoses are instrumental in managing the conditions effectively and providing information to at-risk family members and those planning to expand their families.
Dr. Al-Shinnag's service specialises in addressing a range of conditions, some of which include congenital anomalies, intellectual disability, developmental delay, dysmorphic features, cardiac malformations and diseases, hearing loss, neurological and muscular disorders (such as genetic epilepsy, hereditary spastic paraparesis, peripheral neuropathy, and muscular dystrophy), and eye disorders (including retinitis pigmentosa, congenital cataract, early or late onset macular dystrophy, and various other retinal diseases).
