About Gene-Checker

What is Genetic Testing?

Genetic testing involves examining the structure of your genome and genes, which serve as the body's blueprint, to check for any changes in specific genes, and to assess the risk of developing certain traits or diseases. Typically, blood is used for the test, but it can also be done using oral mucosa, skin, hair roots, nails, saliva, and other tissues.

At our clinic, we offer the Gene-Checker genetic test kit, which allows you to conduct the test at home. Gene-Checker
