Suitability for Testing and additional factors Age for testing 30 years is our minimum age at present and we have no maximum. Younger patients can still have their genetic pharmacology profile done but out of our study. If they have a strong family history they could see a geneticist at The London Genetics Centre. Are…
How much does it cost? The cost of the full medical and bloods, electrocardiogram and echo together with abdominal and pelvic ultrasound, pre-counselling, whole genome sequencing and separate additional genetic panel tests and a 30-minute post result consultation with a consultant geneticist is £4,995. If you have an actionable gene alteration you will have the…
Results How long do the results take? 12-18 weeks from the time of sending off your blood; you will receive an email to let you know your results are available. All results are given in a face to face consultation, although in exceptional circumstances we can conduct a consultation by video-call. Is our whole genome…

We will treat your information with the strictest confidentiality. Data security will be our top priority. Where will my results and data be…
The Future Is this the ultimate test or will there be more to come? Further disease-causing genes will be found and we will learn more about the effects of combinations of genes. Sequencing may read to a greater depth and this may reduce the miss rate from one in several thousand, at present, to even…
