At HCA Healthcare UK, we use the latest research and innovative genetic testing to help determine the most effective course of treatment.

 

Our ground-breaking work in genetic analysis helps our consultants to determine the course of treatment that may be most effective for each individual patient. It also gives information that may be useful in identifying potential 'off-label treatments' (medicines used in a manner not specified on the label) or clinical trials. Our genetic testing services can be accessed through our HCA UK services in London and Manchester.
