Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“As a DHA-licensed consultant in medical genetics, I believe genetic testing for LVNC7 empowers families with clarity, yet it must be woven into a full clinical evaluation – never in isolation. I remind every patient that a negative result does not erase symptoms, and any change in management must be guided by a specialist.”
