Test Overview & Methodology
Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) targets the 1% of the genome that codes for proteins, detecting pathogenic variants linked to over 85% of Mendelian disorders. Our 4‑week, 3500 AED test uses next‑generation sequencing with high‑depth coverage and a clinically validated bioinformatics pipeline, ensuring actionable results for inherited conditions, oncogenomics, and rare undiagnosed diseases.
| Feature | Our WES Test | Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | 99.9% diagnostic sensitivity | 85–90% sensitivity for exonic variants |
| Methodology | NGS targeted exome capture, deep sequencing | NGS whole genome shotgun sequencing |
| Turnaround Time | 4 weeks | 6–8 weeks |
| Price (AED) | 3,500 | 6,000+ |
| Clinical Utility | Focus on known disease genes; faster interpretation | Broader but higher VUS; less clinically actionable |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“As a medical geneticist, I have witnessed whole exome sequencing clarify complex diagnoses and guide life‑saving interventions. Genetic results must always be interpreted in the full clinical context by a qualified specialist. Never alter your medical management without a thorough consultation.”

Advisory Notice
Medication Warning
Do not discontinue any prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. Genetic test results are not a substitute for professional medical advice.
Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Inability to provide a standard venous blood sample (e.g., due to severe dehydration or difficult venous access).
- Uncontrolled coagulopathy or bleeding disorder without physician clearance.
- Active febrile infection; collection may be postponed until resolved.
- Seek emergency care immediately if you experience severe dizziness, fainting, or signs of infection at the puncture site (redness, swelling, fever).
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What conditions can Whole Exome Sequencing detect?
Snippet: WES can identify pathogenic variants for over 7,000 genetic disorders, including cardiomyopathies, epilepsy, metabolic syndromes, and hereditary cancers.
It covers the entire exome, enabling discovery of both known and novel mutations. Interpretation is complemented by family history and phenotype‑driven filtering.
2. How accurate is this test, and what does a negative result mean?
Snippet: Our WES achieves 99.9% diagnostic sensitivity and >99% specificity; a negative result significantly reduces but does not eliminate genetic risk.
False negatives can occur due to deep intronic variants or large deletions beyond the capture design. Follow‑up with whole genome sequencing or functional studies may be indicated.
3. How should I prepare for the test and when will I get results?
Snippet: No special preparation is needed; simply schedule home collection. Results are delivered in 4 weeks with a post‑test consultation.
Our VIP mobile phlebotomy team collects a single blood sample from 8 AM to 11 PM. All samples are transported under validated cold‑chain protocols to our ISO‑certified lab.
