Answers matter.
Context matters more.
GeneMetrics helps patients and clinicians navigate prenatal screening, reproductive genetics, hereditary cancer, pharmacogenomics and specialist molecular testing — with clear pathways from question to result.
Testing at GeneMetrics
Built around the clinical question.
Genetic testing is most useful when the test matches the question. Our service architecture is designed to make that decision easier, then support appropriate sample collection, referral testing and result interpretation.
Fertility & reproductive genetics
Selected genetic and molecular investigations for fertility care, recurrent pregnancy loss and reproductive planning.
Explore fertility testing →Carrier screening
Targeted and expanded screening for inherited conditions that may be relevant before or during pregnancy.
Explore carrier screening →Hereditary cancer genetics
Germline testing pathways for selected hereditary cancer syndromes, supported by clinical context and appropriate counselling.
Learn more →Pharmacogenomics
Genetic information that may help clinicians understand variation in response to selected medicines.

More than a test menu.
A long list of assays is not the same as a good diagnostic service. GeneMetrics starts with the clinical question, then helps make the pathway understandable.

Frequently asked questions
Useful answers before you test.
Start here if you are deciding whether to test, comparing options or preparing to speak to your clinician.
What is non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT)?
NIPT is a screening test that analyses cell-free DNA in a pregnant person’s blood to estimate the chance of selected chromosome conditions. It is a screening test, not a diagnostic test.
When can NIPT be performed?
Timing depends on the specific test. Many NIPT options can be performed from around 10 weeks of pregnancy. GeneMetrics confirms eligibility for the selected test before sample collection.
Does a high-chance NIPT result confirm a condition?
No. A high-chance screening result should be discussed with the treating clinician and may require diagnostic confirmation using an appropriate invasive test.
What is carrier screening?
Carrier screening looks for inherited variants associated with selected recessive or X-linked conditions. It can be considered before or during pregnancy and may help inform reproductive planning.
Can GeneMetrics help with fertility-related genetic testing?
Yes. GeneMetrics offers access to selected reproductive and fertility-related genetic and molecular investigations. The most appropriate test depends on clinical history and the question being investigated.
Do you offer hereditary cancer genetic testing?
GeneMetrics can facilitate hereditary cancer genetic testing when clinically appropriate. Because test selection and interpretation can be complex, results should be reviewed in clinical context and genetic counselling may be recommended.
