Finding the best course of care

Our groundbreaking 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.
