MONTREAL, May 27, 2015 /CNW Telbec/ - BiogeniQ is the first Canadian company to specialise in delivering genetic testing in a clinical setting in collaboration with healthcare professionals. The company has developed testing panels that allow people to better understand important information stored in their DNA. More specifically, BiogeniQ's tests help people optimize their health by giving specific advice about nutrition and medications.
If questions like 'am I sensitive to Gluten' or 'am I sensitive to Caffeine' often come to mind, and you aren't sure of the cause of indigestion or an elevated heart rate, the answer could be in your genes. The science behind genetics also allows people to predict with very high accuracy how they will react to certain medications; with genetics it is possible to choose the right medication at the right dose in order to avoid side effect and get the desired therapeutic effect.
Créa-med, a private medical clinic which puts emphasis on personalized medicine and innovation in healthcare, is proud to offer a higher level of service and precision to its patients. According to Dr. Luc Bessette, president of Créa-med, "Precision medicine is at our door; luckily we are at a point where treating all patients the same way - as a statistic and despite their individuality - will be a thing of the past."
BiogeniQ is proud to offer its 2 tests in partnership with Créa-Med and to participate in the advancement of medicine in Quebec.
