Collection: Genetic Testing

Genetic testing, also known as DNA testing, is a type of medical test that identifies changes in chromosomes, genes, or proteins. As a result of this new technology, we are now able to be one step ahead to tackle any health risks and reveal the root cause of any illness.

Genetic testing also helps estimate your chance of developing cancer in your lifetime. It does this by searching for mutations. For example, genetic testing for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer looks for mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes.

Noninvasive prenatal tests (NIPT) can screen for trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) and other chromosomal abnormalities—as well as the sex of your baby—as early as nine weeks into your pregnancy, and with a high degree of accuracy.
