Medcan Clinic

The Medcan Clinic is a leading preventive healthcare clinic focused on identifying health risks before signs and symptoms occur.

Medcan’s strategic alliance with Navigenics enhances Medcan’s genetic program by integrating preventive genomic medicine into Medcan’s clinical practice. Medcan is the only clinic in Canada to offer Navigenics personalized genetic testing services in conjunction with in-person counselling by a certified Genetic Counsellor. By combining a patient’s genetic risk profile with family history, Medcan gives a more complete picture, arming patients with powerful information to take personalized preventive steps. Medcan also provides Pharmacogenomics, which examines how specific genetic variants affect an individual’s ability to metabolize medications. It is used by Medcan physicians to reduce trial and error prescribing and predict which medications are least likely to produce adverse side-effects, some of which can be life-threatening.

Since 1987, the Medcan Clinic has been offering individuals, families and corporate executives a thorough head-to-toe medical assessment, performed by a top-quality clinical team in a single five-hour visit. Medcan also provides an array of in-house health and wellness services, such as diagnostic imaging, optometry, fitness and nutritional counseling, to customize patients' medical care and optimize healthy outcomes. Patients benefit from Medcan's in-house specialists and extensive referral network.
