Evaluating knowledge enhancement and attitudinal shift among physicians participating in capacity building workshops on expanded premarital screening in the United Arab Emirates: a cross-sectional study
These findings suggest that targeted educational interventions can significantly enhance healthcare professionals' knowledge and attitudes regarding genetic screening practices. To maximize impact, these interventions should be sustainable and reinforced through regular refresher courses. Continuous education ensures that physicians remain updated on the latest guidelines, advancements in genetic screening, and best practices, ultimately improving the quality of patient care and counseling services.
