Find the right genetic test for you

Whether you are screening for family cancer risk, seeking answers for a child, or managing patient care, select your need below.

Most Comprehensive

Clinical Whole Exome Sequencing (WES)

Reads all ~20,000 protein-coding genes in one single test. Perfect when a diagnosis is uncertain, or when symptoms could be caused by many different genes.

Who it is for: Families with undiagnosed developmental conditions, neurological concerns, or complex inherited disorders.
Options: Single patient (proband) or Trio Exome (patient + both biological parents for higher diagnostic accuracy).
Sample type: Small blood draw (3–5 mL in EDTA tube) or gentle buccal cheek swab.
All-inclusive fee PKR 120,000 Free reanalysis & counselling included
Turnaround: 4 to 6 weeks
Counselling: Pre & post-test included

Prevention & Early Detection

Hereditary Cancer Risk Panels

Identifies inherited genetic mutations that increase the lifetime risk of breast, ovarian, colorectal, and other cancers. Knowledge empowers early screening and preventive action.

Key genes tested: BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, ATM, CHEK2, Lynch syndrome genes (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2), and multi-cancer panels.
Who it is for: Individuals with a personal or strong family history of cancer, early-onset diagnosis, or multiple affected relatives.
Family screening: Cascade testing recommendations to protect at-risk siblings and children.
Targeted panels Affordable Tailored to clinical indication
Turnaround: 3 to 4 weeks
Doctor report: NCCN-aligned actionable advice

Compassionate Family Care

Rare Pediatric & Inherited Conditions

Ending the prolonged "diagnostic odyssey." When children face developmental delays, seizures, or metabolic concerns, a precise genetic answer replaces guesswork with targeted care.

Gentle sampling: Painless buccal cheek swab available for infants and toddlers who find blood draws difficult.
Consanguinity care: Specialized analysis for recessive conditions common in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and northern Pakistan.
Future planning: Carrier status testing to help families make informed future reproductive decisions.
Exome & Trio PKR 120,000 Family Trio packages available
Guidance: Compassionate genetic counselling
Reanalysis: Free lifelong variant updates

Why families and doctors choose Baseline

Until now, Pakistani patients faced astronomical fees, 3-month overseas delays, and technical PDFs no one would explain. We changed that.

Everything you need to know

Here are honest, simple answers to questions patients and doctors frequently ask us.

Will the test hurt, and how is the sample collected?

Not at all. For adults and older children, a standard small blood draw (3–5 mL, just like a routine blood test) is done by our gentle phlebotomist in Peshawar. For babies, young children, or anyone nervous about needles, we also offer a gentle cheek swab that is completely painless and takes less than a minute.

What happens if the test finds a genetic mutation?

Finding a mutation is not a verdict — it is empowering information. Our clinical lead, Dr. Madina Shirdel, conducts a free post-test session to explain exactly what the result means. We work with your treating doctor to outline proven medical strategies: lifestyle adaptations, early preventive screenings, medication options, and guidance for your family.

Why is Whole Exome Sequencing PKR 120,000 at Baseline?

Traditionally, labs in Pakistan ship samples to third-party commercial brokers abroad, adding shipping overhead, middleman markups, and currency surcharges. Because Baseline manages DNA processing, bioinformatics, and clinical interpretation directly with our in-house team in Peshawar, we pass those savings directly to patients.

What is "Long-Term Reanalysis" and why is it free?

Sometimes a DNA change is labeled as a "Variant of Uncertain Significance" (VUS) because science hasn't seen enough cases yet. Over months and years, as international medical databases update, these variants get resolved. Other labs charge you for a whole new test; Baseline keeps your data securely archived and updates your findings for free as science advances.

Is my genetic data safe and private?

Strictly confidential. Your personal name and identifying details are detached and replaced with an anonymous barcode before any computer analysis begins. Your DNA information is never sold, licensed, or shared with insurance companies or third parties.

How can my doctor collaborate with Baseline?

Doctors can call, message on WhatsApp, or refer patients directly. We provide doctors with clear, actionable clinical reports (following international ACMG/AMP guidelines) and our bioinformatics team is always available for direct case conferences. We also design custom specialty panels for clinics at no extra charge.
