We believe everyone should have a choice about their private genetic health
The answers are waiting for you
The answers that can make all the difference to your life are waiting for you at Genomic Health.
Our overstretched public health means there are criteria to access appointments and testing, and the waitlist can be long.
We know you still have real questions, real concerns regardless of your risk profile.
If you are ready to have a meaningful conversation around your genetic health, ready to engage in the process and show up,
Then you are in the right place.
I’m not going to tell you what to do, but we are going to ask you questions that will have you thinking, exploring and wondering what is right for you. The decisions you make have to align with your beliefs, your values and what you want for the Future You.
What you will get is guided, facilitated genetic testing because you believe in well directed health choices and you value the input of a professional.
When you see us at Genomic Health you get to see a Paediatric trained Doctors with additional specialist training in Medical Genetics which means we can help everyone, not just children.
Our Clinical Geneticists, Himanshu and Ruvi work in public health have studied most of their adult life, and then there is me, a HGSA Board Certified Genetic Counsellor and fully Registered. I’ve worked my whole life in public health, I’ve managed a whole genetic department in Perth, I’ve done genetic research, I’ve got a Graduate Diploma in Counselling, a Masters degree and I’ve dipped my toe into positive psychology.
We have done the hard work so you don’t have to and you can be assured you’re getting the best in the business.
When you have exhausted all avenues and don’t know where to go for answers, we are ready to share our experience and expertise with you.
“It was good to meet you. I felt like the appointment went really well. I appreciate your calm, considerate approach to care. You really did try to cover all the bases. We couldn't be any more informed, which is a new experience for me. It helped confirm that I'm going in the right direction, in regards to my health & overall well-being.” - CA
