GALLERI CANCER TESTING

Introducing the Galleri™ test* by

As we enter 2024, I want to express how you and your health are our priority here at our practice. As cancer has touched each of our lives in one way or another, I want to be proactive in early screening for this deadly disease. This is why I am happy to announce we are now offering GRAIL’s multi-cancer early detection test.

Introducing the Galleri™ test* by GRAIL

An innovative breakthrough in early cancer detection that screens for more than 50 types of cancer, many of which are not commonly screened for today. With a simple blood draw, the Galleri test provides early detection insights that help you to be proactive about your health. Today, 71% of cancer related deaths are caused by cancer not commonly screened for. When cancer is diagnosed early, or before it has had a chance to spread, the overall 5-year survival rate is 4 times higher than when it is diagnosed in later stages. With this test, doctors have seen deadly cancers detected at unseen early stages, even when the patient had no symptoms. After personal examination of the research and results, I am excited about what this cancer screening offers.

Here are some benefits of the test:

It can be incorporated into an office visit with a simple blood draw.
The test is extremely accurate, with a 0.5% false positive rate.
If a cancer signal is detected, this test can predict where in the body the cancer is coming from, which helps us to act swiftly and guide your next steps.

I encourage you to visit www.galleri.com to learn more about the test and find answers to any questions you may have. I am happy to have further discussions and share my personal thoughts with you at a scheduled time. This test is not covered by insurance.

Monthly payment plans are available through GRAIL, interest-free, for up to 12 months. FSA or HSA reimbursement may be available (contact your FSA or HSA provider to confirm).
