What Our Client Says

Straight Forward Testing.

With 3 different cancers in the family; it seemed sensible to get tested…….

The whole process was very easy. I sent off my saliva and, within a few weeks, I received a phone-call and the attached report confirming that I don’t have any of the mutations. You can see the list of mutations, including the BRCAs. I was also pleasantly surprised by the price.

How A Genetic Testing Service Should Be Run

Frustrated with the time frame given to me by my NHS doctors I looked for an alternative…….

From the start, they have shown how a genetic testing service should be run. Their service gave me the option to speed up my results from 8 to 12 months through the NHS, down to 6 weeks….


Having a genetic variant is stressful enough, but the possibility of waiting nearly a year for the results from the NHS would place a significant mental strain on people. I would highly recommend this testing service to anyone who wants this test. Furthermore, having the results explained to me from such a caring doctor that gives you straight answers, was exceptional. Thank you for all your help and support.
