The domain experts of GF include some of the seasoned geneticists, biodiversity scientists, clinicians, and molecular biologists who are the erstwhile heads of central and state organisations who are advocating multiple therapy alternatives for treating genetic conditions besides offering genetic diagnostics, counselling, research and patient care services for a wide range of patients suffering from rare and lifestyle-based diseases amongst the rural poor and urban hi-tech job-oriented populations.

More clinicians are nowadays advocating for personalised patient management. There is a growing momentum to improve this further by integrating genomic information into clinical care by incorporating powerful new disease prevention, prediction, diagnosis and treatment tools. Advances in cellular and molecular biology techniques, genetic technology and understanding of pathology at a molecular level, coupled with an increasing patient demand for genetic and genomic investigation, are driving this momentum. GF is one of the leading organisations in India offering ‘Gut Microbiome Modulation’ based treatment options for genetic disorders to patients with appropriate prebiotic and probiotic supplements.

GF offers all diagnostic services at affordable, not-for-profit prices with free genetic counselling services and alternative treatment optional advisory services to the patients and their families.
