DISCOVER WHAT’S WRITTEN IN YOUR DNA: TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR HEALTH
Have you ever wondered why some people get heart PALPITATIONS from one cup of coffee, while others go peacefully to sleep after three?
Or why a 2 pack-a-day smoker dies from old age, while someone else gets lung cancer from secondary smoke?
Or why 2 people on the same diet and exercise regimen could have drastically different results?
Genetic testing and gene-based treatments are the cornerstones of PERSONALIZED MEDICINE. It is not the medicine of the future, it should be the medicine of NOW.

This introduction is your gateway to understanding the world of medical genetic testing, its significance, and the transformative impact it can have on your life.
What is Medical Genetic Testing?
Medical genetic testing, often referred to as genetic testing or DNA testing, is a sophisticated scientific process that examines your unique genetic code, or DNA, to reveal information about your inherited traits, potential health risks, and susceptibility to certain diseases. At its core, it’s an exploration of the instructions written within your genes that define who you are and how your body functions.
Why is Medical Genetic Testing Important?
- Personalized Insights: Your DNA holds the key to a personalized health roadmap. By analyzing your genetic data, medical genetic testing provides insights into your genetic predispositions, allowing for tailored healthcare and lifestyle choices.
- Early Detection: Genetic testing can identify your susceptibility to various diseases and conditions, enabling early intervention and preventive measures. It’s a proactive approach to health.
- Informed Decision-Making: Armed with genetic information, you and your healthcare provider can make more informed decisions about treatments, medications, and wellness strategies.
The Journey of Medical Genetic Testing
- Sample Collection: The journey begins with a simple and painless sample collection process, typically involving a fingerstick blood spot. This sample contains your DNA, the genetic code that encodes the information of your life.
- Laboratory Analysis: Your DNA sample is sent to a specialized laboratory where skilled geneticists and technicians perform intricate analysis. They examine specific regions of your DNA, looking for genetic variations and mutations.
- Data Interpretation: The genetic data collected is transformed into meaningful information. This data can include insights about your ancestry, genetic traits, and potential health risks.
- Consultation: You’ll have the opportunity to discuss your results with Dr. Azizian, who is certified in genetic medical testing interpretation. That will help you understand the implications of your genetic data and assist you in making informed decisions.
Empowering Your Health
Medical genetic testing is not just a scientific process; it’s a journey of self-discovery and empowerment. It offers the promise of a healthier, more informed future, where you can take proactive steps to safeguard your well-being and make choices aligned with your genetic makeup.
As we delve deeper into the world of genetics and genomics, medical genetic testing continues to evolve, offering more comprehensive and actionable insights. It’s an exciting frontier in healthcare, where the power of knowledge meets the potential for healthier and happier lives. Embrace the journey, and unlock the power of your DNA.
