The virtual Center of Excellence will be instrumental in integrating tailored medicine and genomics testing into Endeavor Health’s primary care practices, enabling patients and their healthcare providers to make more informed decisions regarding early detection, preventive strategies, and tailored treatment plans.

Endeavor Health also operates The Mark R. Neaman Center for Personalized Medicine.

This facility offers genomic-based tests that support tailored diagnostic and treatment options for patients.

Mark R Neaman Center for Personalized Medicine director Peter Hulick said: “Unfortunately for most patients, genomics isn’t incorporated into their care plan.

“Endeavor Health has been an industry leader in providing genomics-guided care to better identify health risks and deliver targeted prevention and treatments. This transformational gift will enable us to build on early successes in an exponential way to deliver personalised medicine to our patients and their families.”
