Attention Las Vegas, Pecos, Glorieta, New Mexico! We are hosting our next community genetic testing event CHRISTUS St. Vincent Health Specialists in Las Vegas on Tuesday, January 28 from 4:00 – 6:00 pm weather permitting. The event is open to everyone regardless of if you’ve had prior care at CSV. You will have the opportunity to learn about genetic testing, speak to me, a breast surgical oncologist and genetic testing expert, about your family history, and if you meet criteria we will do a blood test on site which will be billed to your insurance. We will be testing for a 48 gene panel which includes BRCA 1 and 2. Most insurances cover the test with no out of pocket cost. We have low cost and free options for those who don’t have insurance. If you have a personal or family history of cancer diagnosed under the age of 50, any family members with pancreatic or ovarian cancer, or multiple family members with breast, prostate, colon, and uterine cancer, please come by!
