Grace Primary Care now offers the following testing:

CGx: Testing that targets the most important genes associated with breast, colon, pancreatic, gynecological and melanoma cancers. These tests are ordered frequently by oncologists, as well as family doctors and internal medicine doctors that are primary care physicians and with patients with at-risk family histories.

Neurodegenerative Disease NGS Panel: Hereditary Neurodegenerative panel, which examines 161 genes associated with an increased risk of developing neurodegenerative disorders and detects both the diagnostic and risk factor genes for Dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and more.

NGS Panel: Thyroid Genetics Test examines genetic changes that are relevant for hypothyroidism, thyroid hormone resistance, and thyroid risk panel. This NGS panel consists of 45 genes. These are listed in the table along with the disease-related conditions.

Pulmonary NGS Panel: Pulmonary diseases, also known as lung disorders and respiratory diseases, affect the lung and other parts of the respiratory system. Pulmonary diseases may be caused by infection, breathing in tobacco smoke or other forms of air pollution, or genetic variations, which are associated with inherited/genetic pulmonary diseases.

The most common genetic respiratory disease is cystic fibrosis, which affects the airways. Other examples of genetic pulmonary diseases include primary ciliary dyskinesia, tuberous sclerosis, Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome, among many others.

Thyroid Genetics NGS Panel: Thyroid Genetics Test examines genetic changes that are relevant for hypothyroidism, thyroid hormone resistance, and thyroid risk panel. This NGS panel consists of 45 genes. 

Metabolic Disorders Panel: Comprehensive Metabolism-associated gene panel consists of 199 genes, and mutations found in these genes are known to be involved in various monogenetic metabolic disorders in patients. Identification of causative mutations helps timely treatment. Specifically, these gene mutations produce non-functional enzymes in key metabolic pathways of energy usage, storage, and converting branches. As a result of these non-functional enzymes, metabolic intermediate toxic products accumulate in patients and cause various metabolic syndromes.

Primary Immunodeficiency NGS Panel: his gene panel helps in the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases, and in complex clinical cases, helps distinguish between diseases with overlapping symptoms to aid in risk assessment.3 This panel tests for diseases including HIV, Pneumocystosis, Nezelof’s Syndrome, Pancytopenia, Myelofibrosis, and more.

Eye Disorder NGS Panel: consist of multiple panels for various eye disorders including, but not limited to retinal disorders, optic nerve disorders, corneal diseases, structural diseases, eye movement diseases, glaucoma, cataract, and myopia. 

Cardiopulmonary NGS Panel: Cardiopulmonary syndromes are conditions of the heart and lung. These organs are closely connected, and a problem in one can spill over to the other. For example, when the heart is not able to pump blood efficiently, normal oxygen movement in the lungs is reduced, causing shortness of breath. On the other hand, a problem with the lungs can cause the heart to work harder to get oxygen from the lungs into the blood.

Pharmacogenetic NGS Panel: pharmacogenetic testing service, PGx Testing, uses a patient’s genes to determine how they will respond to a particular medicine or a combination of medicines and identifies their unique sensitivities to possible drug effects. As a result, healthcare providers can minimize or completely avoid trial-and-error dosing and substantially reduce the risk of potential adverse drug events.

Women’s Reproductive Health & Women’s Health Panel: 

Molecular Onychomycosis Nail Fungus PCT Testing:

Sexually Transmitted Infection PCR Panel:

Wound Pathogen PCR Panel:

Gastrointestinal Panel:

Urinary Tract Infection PCR Panel:

Regular health checks can help to identify early warning signs of disease or illness. Heart disease, diabetes and some cancers can often be picked up in their early stages, when treatment may be more successful.

When you have a check, your doctor will talk to you about your medical history, your family’s history of disease and your lifestyle. Your diet, weight, how much you exercise, and whether or not you smoke and drink alcohol or take illegal drugs will also be discussed.

If you have high-risk factors, such as a family history of a condition, it may be more likely that you will develop a particular disease. Regular checks may help your doctor pick up early warning signs.

If you have a high risk of a particular health condition, your doctor may recommend more frequent health checks at an earlier age.

These are some common tests, but your doctor may recommend others according to your situation.

• Blood pressure – have your blood pressure checked every 2 years if it is normal, you are aged under 40 years, and there is no family history of high blood pressure. Have it checked yearly if you are over 40, your blood pressure is on the high side, or you have a personal or family history of high blood pressure, stroke or heart attack. Be advised by your doctor.
• Blood tests – check cholesterol levels and blood triglycerides, among other things. High levels may indicate an increased risk of various health problems, including heart disease. If you are over 45, you should have these blood tests once every 5 years. If you are at high risk of heart disease and have a family history, you should be tested every year from the age of 40.
• Electrocardiogram (ECG) – this is a non-invasive and painless medical test that detects cardiac (heart) abnormalities by measuring the electrical activity generated by the heart as it contracts.
• Obesity tests – being overweight is a significant risk factor for many health conditions, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Ask your doctor to check your body mass index (BMI) and waist measurement every 2 years. If you are at a higher risk, you should have your weight checked more frequently.

We offer  cash pay prices for patients that do not have health care coverage.

 A Department of Transportation (DOT) physical is a physical exam that is required of people who drive commercial vehicles. The point of a DOT physical is to make sure that people who are driving commercial motor vehicles (CMVs), such as large trucks and buses, are physically, mentally, and emotionally fit. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) requires this testing for the safety of the public. 

You will need a DOT physical if you:

• Drive a vehicle designed to carry more than 15 people.
• Are paid to drive a vehicle designed to carry more than eight people.
• Carry hazardous material in your vehicle that requires your vehicle to have a placard.
• Drive a vehicle on the interstate with a gross combination weight rating, gross vehicle weight rating, or gross combination weight of 10,000 pounds (5 tons) or more.
• 
  

If you pass your DOT physical, you’ll receive a Medical Examiner's Certificate (MEC), also known as your DOT medical card. This certification, along with your commercial driver’s license (CDL), allows you to drive a commercial vehicle for 2 years, provided you have no underlying physical or mental condition that requires testing more often.

Medical conditions that require you to have an annual DOT physical include:

• Diabetes 
• High blood pressure(hypertension)
• Heart disease 

If you have a medical condition such as very high blood pressure, you may be required to have physicals every 3 months while you undergo medical treatment to correct or manage the issue.

The health care provider who performs your DOT physical will ask you detailed questions about your medical history, including:

• If you've ever had surgery
• Any medicines you're taking, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines
• Any health problems you've had
• If you use tobacco, alcohol, or illegal substances
• If you've ever failed a drug test
• If you've ever been dependent on an illegal substance
• Any symptoms you're currently having

You will have a hands-on physical that includes checking your:

• Height
• Weight
• Blood pressure
• Vision
• Hearing
• General appearance
• Skin
• Eyes
• Ears
• Mouth and throat
• Heart
• Lungs and chest
• Abdomen
• Back and spine
• Genital and urinary system, including checking for hernias
• Extremities and joints
• Nervous system, including your reflexes
• Gait, which is how you walk
• Circulatory system, which includes your arteries, veins, and lymphatic system

While impacting people of all ages, the viruses causing COVID-19, RSV disease, and the flu render the following populations especially vulnerable: children, the elderly, those who are immunocompromised, and people with underlying conditions. Coughing, sneezing, and potential contact with virus-contaminated surfaces all contribute to virus spread.

Often spiking during the winter season, COVID-19, RSV disease and the flu are contagious respiratory illnesses that share many of the same symptoms. The three illnesses could possibly seasonally surge, posing a triple threat to you and your family. 

We offer the  Multiplex Test  PCR 

A PCR multiplex test will empower your provider to detect and differentiate between COVID-19, Flu A, Flu B, and RSV with a single nasal swab.
