Cancer Risk Assessment and Genetics Program
The Lankenau Hospital Cancer Risk Assessment and Genetics Program is designed to evaluate an individual's lifetime risk for
breast, ovarian and colorectal cancer using personal, medical, familial, and/or genetic factors. Participants gain an understanding
about what it means to be at average, moderate, or high risk and, as a result, are able to make informed healthcare decisions.
This free program (generously supported through donations) is administered by a certified genetic counselor with oversight
by a medical oncologist. Genetic testing, if appropriate, is also offered and is usually covered by insurance. Get Details!
