Our integration with a world-renowned medical center equips us with patient experience that supports development of disease-specific, algorithmic-based testing approaches that provide faster answers for each patient. Whether screening patients or monitoring therapeutic management, our evaluations cover the full-spectrum of gastroenterology testing.
“Sometimes we can identify a different reason for patients’ symptoms that requires a different treatment course, and that can improve their outcome. When you can actually make a big difference like that, it’s always a test to be proud of.”
Ann Moyer, M.D., Ph.D., co-director of the Personalized Genomics Laboratory
