Default 23andme

My husband is a long time supporter of 23andme research. I recently had my profile done. Think the outsider billionaires conducting their own research is awesome.
Recently contacted a geneologist to discuss one of my husband's mutations reported from 23andme, and this physician/geneologist strongly advised my husband have a "real" DNA testing done through the university laboratory before consulting with us! We were informed that they were sending in samples on their own to test the validity of results from 23andme. Perhaps this guy was motivated by true concern. He was a kind gentle man. So i am hoping that was his motivation and not turf war mentality. madelyn
