If I know my family's health history, I don't need a genetic test.

Rose Center for Preventive Medicine

All too often people visit a doctor only after they've suffered advanced disease and are too ill to be cured. The Rose Center for Preventive Medicine in Denver, Colorado believes that prevention is the key to a long, healthy life. Their goal is to combine the most advanced laboratory testing, appropriate imaging, and virtually unlimited time to offer the best preventive health exam possible. Prevention also means playing an active role in your own good health. It has long been their observation that those individuals who understand the most about their bodies take the best care of themselves. Good health begins with knowledge.

The Rose Center and Navigenics have worked together to offer state-of-the-art genetic testing to patients. Thanks to advances in science, medicine and technology, the center’s doctors can now use patients’ DNA test results to help them take action. Understanding one’s genetic risk for certain medical conditions can lead to increased awareness, early screening and lifestyle changes that can have a powerful impact on prevention.
