Dr. Bennett is a pediatric geneticist and lab director who specializes in the genetics of vascular anomalies and mosaic conditions. He splits his time between seeing patients, working as a clinical lab director primarily overseeing the Seattle Children’s vascular anomalies tests (“VANSeq” and “SpotSeq”), and running a research lab.  He enjoys telling stories, and in prior lives worked as a public-school science teacher and did improvisational “comedy”. Quotes intentional.
