About This Location
Located at Lake Charles Memorial Hospital, Memorial Genetics offer testing that is used to identify or rule out a specific genetic or chromosomal condition. In many cases, genetic testing is used to confirm a diagnosis when a condition is suspected based on symptoms or family history. The results of this testing can influence a patient’s choices about health care or the management or treatment of a disorder.
Genetic testing can be used in obstetrics, primary care, Women’s Health, gastroenterology, and medical oncology. Genetic testing for cancer genes can provide information about a person’s risk of developing certain cancer, and a personalized care plan can be developed with earlier screenings in hopes of preventing cancer.
BRCA, Mammoprint, Oncotype, ER/PR, and Her2 are some of the many genetic tests offered at Memorial Genetics.
