Genetic check-up in Turkey | Prevention & Diagnosis

Personalized health checkup in Turkey

Our partner clinics in Turkey are at the forefront of predictive medicine. Beyond the traditional health checkup, we offer an in-depth look at your genetic makeup through advanced genomic testing.

We decipher your genetic code to identify your predispositions. We then help you take an active, preventive approach to ensuring your long-term health.

Our personalized health check-up includes:

• A personalized genetic check-up: Discover your genetic predispositions and assess your risk for several diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and certain cancers.
• Personalized health recommendations: Benefit from nutrition, exercise and lifestyle advice tailored to your unique genetic profile.

Anticipate risks, improve your quality of life. Schedule your genetic health checkup now.

Genetic check-up: All you need to know 

The genetic check-up is a set of genetic tests that examine DNA, the genetic code that is unique to each individual. They can detect changes (mutations) in these genetic instructions that may be the cause of hereditary diseases or future disorders.

A genetic test provides:

• Targeted analysis: one or more specific genes associated with a particular disease.
• Exome analysis: All protein-coding genes, about 2% of the genome.
• Whole genome sequencing: Analysis of all our genetic material.

A positive result does not necessarily mean that you will develop the disease, and a negative result does not guarantee that you are not at risk. Many factors, both genetic and environmental, influence gene expression.
You should talk to a health professional (doctor, geneticist) to understand the results, their implications and any action that needs to be taken.

Many experts in Turkey can help you in this process. Don't hesitate to use their expertise if you have any questions.

Highest-demand specialties & disease groups for genetic testing

Genetic testing is widely used across medical specialties to provide precise, predictive insights. The most commonly requested areas include:

• Oncology: Hereditary cancer syndromes (BRCA1/2, Lynch syndrome) and somatic tumor profiling for targeted therapies (EGFR, KRAS, BRAF, etc.).
• Obstetrics / Perinatology: Prenatal screening (NIPT),chromosomal abnormalities (Down syndrome, Trisomy 13, Trisomy 18),carrier screening.
• Neurology: Neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's),epilepsy panels, neuromuscular disorders (SMA, Duchenne muscular dystrophy).
• Pediatrics (Metabolic & developmental disorders): Congenital metabolic disorders, developmental delay/intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorders.
• Cardiology: Inherited cardiomyopathies (HCM, DCM),arrhythmia syndromes (Long QT, Brugada),sudden cardiac death risk.
• Hematology: Hematologic malignancies (leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma) with molecular profiling.
• Endocrinology: Monogenic diabetes (MODY),hereditary endocrine tumor syndromes (MEN1, RET mutations),congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
• Immunology: Primary immunodeficiencies, autoinflammatory syndromes.

Integrating genetic testing across these specialties allows for personalized prevention, early intervention, and optimized treatment plans.

Genetic check-up process in Turkey

Your health is our priority. A Genetic Health Check in Turkey gives you an in-depth view of your genetic capital, enabling you to adopt a lifestyle tailored to your long-term well-being.

The process of a genetic health check in Turkey consists of 3 steps :

1. Personalized consultation:

• In-depth discussion: An interview with an expert allows you to discuss your family history, lifestyle and specific concerns.
• Choice of tests: Together, you select the genetic tests that best meet your needs.

2. Complete genetic analysis:

• Decoding your DNA: Your samples are analyzed in the lab to reveal your unique genetic makeup.
• Detailed report: You will receive a comprehensive report that decodes the results of your analyses.

3. Post-test consultation (online or face to face):

• Interpretation of results: A healthcare professional will guide you through the interpretation of your genetic report.
• Personalized advice: You'll receive specific recommendations to optimize your health, prevent disease and improve your quality of life.

Sequence of the genome

If genetic testing does not lead to a diagnosis, but a genetic cause is still suspected, some clinics offer a genome process and analysis of a DNA sample from your blood.

Each person has a unique genome, which is made up of the DNA testing of all of a person's genes. Indeed, this sophisticated test can further help identify genetic variants that may be related to your health. Typically, this test only examines the parts of DNA encoding proteins called an exome.
