At ArtMedica, personal health care begins with understanding your genetic makeup. Myriad Genetics® Testing analyzes your DNA to assess hereditary risks for health conditions, including cancers, cardiovascular diseases, and other concerns. Located in Chicago, ArtMedica offers Myriad Genetics® Testing to empower patients with knowledge for proactive health and lifestyle decisions. 

What is Myriad Genetics® Testing? 

Myriad Genetics® Testing is a comprehensive tool for evaluating genetic risks associated with hereditary health conditions. By analyzing gene mutations, this test provides information on your predisposition for various diseases, such as breast and ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, and cardiovascular conditions. Dr. Skura uses genetic testing to tailor prevention and treatment plans based on your genetic profile. 

Benefits of Myriad Genetics® Testing 

Understanding your genetic risks allows for early detection, prevention strategies, and personalized care. Myriad Genetics® Testing helps identify inherited conditions, enabling you to take proactive steps to manage your health effectively. Dr. Skura uses this test to guide patients in creating tailored wellness plans, improving long-term health outcomes. 

Candidates for Myriad Genetics® Testing 

Myriad Genetics® Testing is beneficial for individuals with a family history of genetic conditions or those seeking to understand their hereditary health risks. It is particularly useful for patients concerned about cancers, cardiovascular conditions, or other genetic disorders. Dr. Skura evaluates each patient’s medical history and health goals to determine whether Myriad Genetics® Testing is appropriate for them. 

What to Expect During Myriad Genetics® Testing 

The testing process is simple and non-invasive. Patients visit ArtMedica for a blood draw or saliva sample, which is then sent to Myriad Genetics® for analysis. Dr. Skura carefully reviews the results, explaining any identified genetic risks and recommending personalized care plans. If testing reveals significant genetic risks, Dr. Skura collaborates with patients to create preventive strategies, which may include additional screenings, lifestyle adjustments, or referrals to specialists for further care.

I enjoyed meeting Dr. Skura. I found her to be sympathetic and professional at the same time. In my experience (in 3 countries) a good doctor learns enough about each patient so they can judge when a problem is serious. I feel Dr. Skura fits this description.

I look for three things in my primary care doctor. The first is thoroughness, the second is being a good listener, and the third is he or she is a caring doctor. I have found [Dr. Skura] to have all three of these qualities. I’m happy to have found her and recommend her very highly!

- D.G.

Dr. Skura takes the time to really get to know her patients as a whole before treating them, which is very rare. You can tell she has a passion for helping others and therefore devoted her life to medicine, making her an outstanding medical professional!
