Who we are...
National Testing Services (NTS) is an organization dedicated to helping individuals with the help of DNA/Genetic Testing. We work with community partners, mostly Doctors and other medical professionals.
We're Advocates for a family owned & operated, CLIA & CAP Certified Genetic Testing Laboratory located in the United States and was established in 1970.
Back in 2003, funding was secured to research and map the entire human genome. This DNA mapping project, at a cost of $5 Billion Dollars, has critical public health consequences for individuals and society.
* The genome is what all humans have in
common at the genetic level. It's our DNA.
* Mutations in the genome could be the cause of hereditary Cancers such as
Breast, Prostate, Pancreatic and other forms of Cancer. When a mutation is
detected in the genome there are solutions provided by medical technology.
* With our PGX or Pharmacogenomic test, we can determine how your
medications are interacting with your DNA/Genetic make-up,
thereby alerting your Physician(s) to the possibility of changing your
prescription(s) to better suit you. It's personalized medicine.
* Our Neurology test could tell you and your doctors if your Dementia,
Parkinsons, Alzheimer's diseases, among others might have been caused by a
mutated or defective gene(s).
* Our Auto-Immune deficiency testing
could possibly determine if qualifying disorders such as certain forms of Arthritis,
Psoriasis, Type 1 Diabetes, Lupus, Grave's Disease, among others could have been caused
by a defective/mutated gene(s).
We seek to work with community partners to facilitate this advocacy. Community partners could include; Medical Practices, Independent Medical Professionals, Pharmacies and other Public or Private Organizations. We also provide no cost educational presentations in a group or private setting for our community partners.
TESTS WE OFFER....
HEREDITARY NEUROLOGY TEST
With a cheek swab, qualified patients can be tested to see if their Dementia, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and/or other Diseases could have possibly been caused by mutated/defective genes. This test could also possibly help your doctor with a proper treatment plan.
HEREDITARY IMMUNOLOGY TEST
With a cheek swab, qualified individuals can be tested to see if their Immune Disorders may have been caused by damaged Genes. Qualifying disorders include, certain forms of Arthritis, Psoriasis, Diabetes Type 1, Lupus, Grave's Disease, Addison's Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Hashimoto's Disease & Chronic Eczema.
HEREDITARY CANCER TEST
With a cheek swab, this test uses your DNA to determine if you are at a greater risk of being diagnosed with a hereditary Cancer in your lifetime. If you've already been diagnosed with certain Cancers, you are at a greater risk of contracting a different hereditary Cancer.
