When you send a specimen for genetic testing, you expect the test results to be accurate, timely, and of the highest quality. We have served Western North Carolina for more than 15 years, providing diagnostic services for patients through area physicians and collaborate with physicians and laboratories across the nation for specific tests.
We blend traditional cytogenetic and molecular genetic approaches and employ state of the art technology to offer you and your patients comprehensive, high quality results. We hold ourselves to a rigorous standard of patient/physician service, and our laboratory directors are always available for consultation to discuss abnormal results or unusual cases.
