Genetic Counselling, Screening & Testing
Understanding one’s genetic risk can change the course of health forever. Oncowin’s Genetic Counselling, Screening, and Testing services help individuals and families identify hereditary cancer risks and take informed preventive steps. Using advanced molecular and DNA testing technologies, our specialists can detect genetic mutations such as BRCA1, BRCA2, and others associated with cancers of the breast, ovary, and colon.
The procedure begins with a comprehensive risk evaluation, including family medical history and lifestyle assessment. If necessary, blood or saliva samples are collected for genetic analysis. Our certified genetic counsellors interpret the results, explain findings in simple terms, and guide patients through available preventive and treatment options.
Oncowin’s approach to genetic testing is deeply human-centered. We emphasize confidentiality, sensitivity, and long-term health planning. Our team integrates genetic data with clinical oncology insights to personalize screening schedules and preventive strategies. Choosing Oncowin means choosing foresight, empowerment, and clarity in your journey toward lifelong cancer prevention.
