Did you hear? We have expanded our advanced cancer

Did you hear? We have expanded our advanced cancer care services by adding a cutting-edge cancer risk assessment program to Epic Care. The Genetic Counseling and Testing program advances precision care through genetic research and provides cancer prevention opportunities for patients and their family members.
“Genetic counseling and testing should be viewed as an essential component of quality cancer care,” said Dr. Sudhathi Chichili “As experts in oncology, it gives us the opportunity to save lives and reduce the risk of cancer for our patients and possibly even their family. It can also help us detect cancer earlier, which increases the chance for a successful outcome. We are excited to add the genetic counseling and testing program to our practice as part of our continuing commitment to provide the most advanced, comprehensive care possible.”
Currently, genetic testing can detect certain gene mutations for breast, ovarian, colon, endometrial, as well as several other types of cancer.
