Welcome to the forefront of genetic medicine! We offer cutting-edge genetic services and consultations. Whether you’re seeking insights into your health risks, exploring personalized treatment plans, or interested in the latest advancements in genetic research, we’re here to guide you.
Individualized Care: Genetic testing allows healthcare professionals to understand an individual’s unique genetic variations. This information enables the development of personalized treatment plans, optimizing the effectiveness of interventions and minimizing potential side effects.
Early Detection of Genetic Predispositions: Genetic testing can identify genetic mutations associated with increased risks of certain diseases. This allows for early intervention or preventive measures, empowering individuals to make informed lifestyle choices and undergo targeted screening for early detection.
Optimizing Medication Selection: Genetic information can influence how individuals metabolize medications. Genetic testing can help predict how a person may respond to certain drugs, allowing healthcare providers to choose the most effective and well-tolerated treatments from the outset.
Tailored Cancer Screening and Prevention: Genetic testing can identify inherited mutations associated with a higher risk of certain cancers. This knowledge allows for personalized cancer screening protocols and preventive measures, contributing to early detection and improved outcomes.
Informed Family Planning: Genetic testing can provide insights into potential genetic conditions that may be passed on to offspring. This information is valuable for family planning, enabling individuals or couples to make informed decisions about reproductive options, including pre-implantation genetic testing or prenatal screening.
Accelerated Diagnosis of Rare Conditions: Genetic testing is instrumental in diagnosing rare genetic disorders. Obtaining a precise diagnosis allows for more targeted management and treatment strategies, potentially connecting individuals with rare diseases to appropriate support networks and therapies.
Genetic medicine involves using information from an individual’s genes to guide their healthcare. It includes services such as genetic testing, counseling, and personalized treatment plans based on genetic information.
Genetic medicine offers personalized insights into your health, helping you understand your unique genetic makeup, assess disease risks, and receive tailored treatment plans for more effective and targeted care.
Our services include:
No, genetic testing is a simple and painless process. It usually involves providing a saliva or blood sample, depending on the type of test.
The turnaround time for results varies based on the specific test. Typically, results are available within a few weeks. Dr. Soto and the team will keep you informed throughout the process.
Yes, by identifying genetic predispositions, we can develop proactive health strategies to reduce the risk of certain diseases. This preventative approach is a key benefit of genetic medicine.
