A conversation with Brad L. Ward, MD.
“For example, some of the other genetic testing companies I’ve seen reports from, they would give you the chemistry of it,” Ward said. “But, most physicians are not trained in genetics, so they don’t know what to do with the report.” With Pro-GeneX’s program, he said the reports are more user-friendly and simple from a formatting standpoint. -Brad L.

Historically Ward said physicians have put patients on a particular medication and hoped for the best. If it didn’t work, they would increase the dosage, take them off or choose an alternative medication in the same chemical class.
“Well now with Pro-GeneX, we now have information so we don’t have to do trial-and-error,” he said. “We go straight to the appropriate medication. That’s the big advantage.”
“We were told that one day there will be personalized medicine, and were promised for 20 years now,” he said. “We’re now realizing this is real and very helpful.”
