A member asked:
I'm considering buying the health and ancestry package from 23&me. on a likely scale from 1-10, how much of a scam is this for health planning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not sure: Hi, I don't know much about these DNA testing services so I can't provide an opinion. I personally haven't created treatment plans for patients based on information from any of these types of tests, I only take a standard verbal family history to give insight to genetics of a patient. Perhaps some other health tap doctors can weigh in.
