Helping you understand your inherited risks of future diseases and illnesses

Through a simple blood test, we can determine your inherited risk for 45 health conditions including cancer, heart disease, respiratory disease by analyzing more than 160 genes.

With a focus on genetic risks for cancer, this targeted version of the Enhanced Proactive Genetic Screening is for those looking to understand and manage their risk of developing a specific range of cancers. Available to anyone regardless of whether they have a family history of cancer.

Cardiovascular disease can be a threat to anyone’s health. A targeted version of our Proactive Genetic Screening can help those who want to proactively manage their risk of cardiovascular disease.

Whole genome sequencing empowers you to be even more proactive about your health. With DNA testing of over 4000 genes you will receive a comprehensive view of your potential genetic risks, with clinical guidance from a Medcan certified genetic counsellor and a medical geneticist to help you make evidence-based decisions to improve your health.

Your unique genetic makeup can affect your reaction to certain medications. This pharmacogenomic assessment can help reduce the trial and error approach to picking medications and doses, and highlight your risk for potential side effects.

If you are considering having children, this screening evaluates genetic risks for your future children, assessing whether you or your partner could be carriers of rare genetic conditions.

Using the Verifiᵀᴹ prenatal test from Illumina, this screening for newly pregnant individuals can accurately detect chromosomal abnormalities in a fetus as early as 10 weeks gestation, with results provided within five days.

This genetic test provides insight into a key gene associated with the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease later in life. The APOE gene plays a role in lipid transport and brain health, with certain variants linked to increased risk. Knowing your APOE status can support more informed decisions around healthy lifestyle strategies that may help prevent or delay the onset of late-onset-Alzheimer's disease.
