The growing pains of genetic counselling in Australia and the United States are compared. Genetic counselling is discussed in terms of occupational struggles for status by the non‐medical professionals and the effect this has on the balance between counselling and medical goals in this new health care field. The influence of medical team members vis‐a‐vis non‐medical personnel is viewed as being stronger in Australia than in the United States
