We selectively test for inherited cardiovascular conditions—like lipid disorders, arrhythmias, or cardiomyopathies—using a DNA-based screen guided by your personal or family history. This identifies hidden, lifelong risks before they appear clinically, allowing you to take early action and make informed health decisions rooted in science, not guesswork.
If you have a family history or concerning traits, we offer targeted genetic testing through a simple saliva or blood sample. We send it to a certified lab, and once results are in, Dr. Saha explains what your genetic markers mean—and how they may impact your long-term heart health.
Knowing your inherited risk helps you make smarter decisions sooner. If you carry genes linked to heart disease, you can take steps now to minimize long-term impact. This test adds a powerful layer of clarity—especially for patients with family history or unexplained abnormal labs.
Genetic Testing
Screens for inherited cardiovascular conditions, offering clarity on lifelong risk based on family history and unique genetic markers.
Patients with a family history of early heart disease, sudden cardiac death, or unexplained cardiac conditions should consider genetic testing. It’s also valuable if you’ve had abnormal labs without clear cause. This is ideal for individuals seeking deeper answers about inherited risks before symptoms or disease develop.
Based on your history, we may recommend a simple saliva or blood sample. This is sent to a certified genetic lab for analysis. Once complete, Dr. Saha explains your results in a one-on-one consultation, focusing on what they mean for your long-term heart health and prevention strategy.
Genetic testing reveals inherited risks that aren’t detectable in routine exams. Knowing your predisposition allows for early, targeted interventions—like medication, lifestyle changes, or imaging—reducing the chance of unexpected cardiac events. It helps personalize your care so you can prevent disease based on your unique genetic profile.
No physical risks—only a saliva or blood sample is required. However, results may reveal lifelong inherited risks. Prepare emotionally and mentally to learn about potential genetic conditions. Dr. Saha will guide you through the findings and offer support, context, and clear action steps if risks are identified.
You’ll receive a detailed explanation of your genetic results and how they impact your heart risk. If inherited risks are found, Dr. Saha will offer personalized recommendations and potential monitoring plans. Some patients may be referred for additional testing or specialty care based on their genetic profile.
