Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“At My Care Labs, I, Dr. Prabhakar Reddy (DHA: 61713011), emphasize that the FISH test for 22q deletion is a critical diagnostic tool but results must be correlated with clinical findings and genetic counseling. A negative result does not exclude other chromosomal anomalies or atypical deletions, and a positive result warrants a comprehensive multidisciplinary evaluation. Rest assured, our team provides compassionate post-test guidance to help you navigate the next steps with clarity and confidence.”
