Helix Health Patients
Personalized Medicine and Your Health
With a specialist genetics team behind you, the full
power of your genetic profile—from family history and
specific genetic tests—is incorporated into your health
care as completely as it can be.
The Helix Health team uses validated models
and applicable genetic testing to provide each of our
patients with a comprehensive risk assessment that
addresses how family history impacts the risk for future
disease as well as how a personal history of a medical
condition impacts the risk for children or other family
members. Our goal is to create a plan of screening,
prevention, and treatment that is targeted to not only
your genetic background, but also your preferences and
objectives.
Helix Health provides patients ongoing consultation
that can include comprehensive assessment and
coordination of applicable genetic testing for:
Inherited cancer risk
Predisposition to chronic diseases such as stroke,
diabetes and heart disease
Pharmacogenetics
- prediction of
response and reaction to medications
Preconception genetic evaluation - likelihood of transmitting inherited diseases to
future children
