Standard blood work shows what's happening in your body right now. Genetic testing reveals why β and what will keep happening if you don't intervene. We analyze your actual DNA: variants in genes that govern how your body absorbs nutrients, processes toxins, regulates mood, and ages at the cellular level. Unlike bloodwork, these results don't fluctuate. They're permanent. One test. Lifetime insight. A precision protocol built exclusively for your biology.
Why Genetic Testing?
Standard blood work shows what's happening in your body right now. Genetic testing reveals why β and what will keep happening if you don't intervene. Blood panels change week to week. Your genes don't. A single test gives you lifetime insight into how your body uniquely handles nutrition, stress hormones, detoxification, and immune response.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a doctor's referral to get genetic testing?
No referral needed. All testing is ordered and supervised by our physicians at Viva Medical Center. During your consultation, your doctor will recommend the right panel combination for your specific health goals.
How is genetic testing different from regular blood work?
Blood work shows your current status β like today's vitamin D level. Genetic testing reveals permanent variants in how your body processes nutrients, metabolizes toxins, and responds to inflammation. These results don't change over time, making them a one-time investment with lifetime value.
How long do results take?
Most panels are returned within 7β14 business days from sample collection. Your physician will schedule a dedicated results review appointment to walk you through the findings and outline your personalized protocol.
Is genetic testing covered by insurance?
Coverage varies by plan and medical necessity. Panels related to celiac disease, MTHFR variants, or medically indicated nutritional deficiencies may qualify for partial reimbursement. Our team will help verify your benefits before ordering.
What happens after I receive my results?
Your physician reviews every result with you in a dedicated consultation. You'll receive a personalized protocol β which may include targeted supplements, dietary modifications, lifestyle recommendations, and a follow-up monitoring schedule β based on your specific genetic findings.
What is add-on pricing?
When you order multiple panels in the same visit, qualifying tests receive a discounted add-on rate. For example, the Methyl Detox Profile drops from $349 to $249 when combined with a CNA. Our staff calculates your optimal combination at booking.
What sample is required?
Most panels require a standard blood draw. Some tests may use a cheek swab or saliva sample. All samples are collected on-site by our licensed clinical staff β no third-party lab visits required.
