Genetic Testing

Murfreesboro Medical Clinic's Comprehensive Breast Center provides comprehensive medical care and support services for people diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer or those at a higher risk. Our goal is early cancer detection for women in Rutherford County and surrounding areas.

Did you know that half of women have a family member who has had or currently has breast or ovarian cancer? 

Hereditary cancer screening is a powerful tool that can help you and your healthcare provider determine if you are at high risk due to family history. Previously referred to as BRCA testing, Genetic Testing now allows for more in-depth screening and detection for both, women and men with an increased risk of developing breast cancer. Catching these types of cancers early on is the key to treating and surviving these cancers, with patients experiencing an impressive 99% survival rate when diagnosed early.

We are proud to offer the Myriad myRisk hereditary cancer panel, designed to identify genetic mutations associated with an increased cancer risk.

This test is not only affordable but also highly accurate and will look for many types of cancers, not just breast cancer. Myriad myRisk shares our commitment to providing the most precise results to patients and healthcare providers to facilitate proper diagnosis and effective treatment plans.
