Your genetic health experts

Genolife is a private clinic offering clinical genetic services by telehealth across Canada. Genetic counselling is at the heart of our approach to accompany patients, and their healthcare professional, at every step to integrate genetics into the management of their health.

Personalized genetic counselling

Our team of genetic specialists is here to help you identify what genetic factors can affect your health and that of your family. You can count on professional and compassionate support for informed decision-making and the medical support that comes with it.

Genetic counselling at your fingertips

Anchored deep within us, genetics is at the heart of our lives. The hereditary factors that we are born with may sooner or later affect our health. Thanks to recent medical innovations, it is now possible to take action to improve the outcomes of certain hereditary diseases through early screening and medical management.

At Genolife, we provide genetic counselling and the option of genetic testing to screen for various hereditary diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular, recessive or rare diseases. Through our comprehensive process of genetic counselling and testing, we will work with you and your physician to identify your risks in order to improve your management and your overall health.
