Hereditary Cancer Testing in Rochester, NY
Some inherited gene changes increase the risk of certain cancers. We help you explore whether genetic testing is appropriate, what the results could mean, and when genetic counseling can support a more informed decision.
Available at Rochester HealthSpan Medicine for members and non-members. Book this service independently, without enrolling in ongoing primary care.
What we can help you explore
Family history review
Look at cancer types, ages at diagnosis, and known familial variants.
Informed testing
Discuss the purpose, scope, costs, privacy considerations, and limitations before testing.
Results in context
Understand positive, negative, and uncertain findings.
A plan for follow-up
Discuss screening recommendations and genetic counseling or specialist referral.
Know what to expect
A positive result indicates increased risk, not certainty of cancer. A negative result does not eliminate cancer risk. Genetic counseling is generally recommended before testing, and results may have implications for relatives.
We review your goals and relevant medical history, explain the proposed service, and discuss benefits, limitations, and next steps. Testing and treatment depend on your individual needs.
