Precision Diagnostics

The Full Picture.
Not Just the Basics.

Standard blood tests show you a fraction of your biology. PHWC's diagnostic suite tests 60+ biomarkers — covering metabolic, cardiovascular, hormonal, inflammatory, and genetic risk — with every result reviewed and explained by a physician.

The Gap

Why Standard Labs Miss the Point.

Most GP blood panels were designed for crisis detection, not prevention. They tell you whether something is critically wrong — not whether you're quietly drifting toward disease.

Standard GP Panel — 10–15 Markers

Crisis Detection Only.

A typical GP blood panel covers basic organ function and flags acute disease. It tells you almost nothing about your metabolic trajectory, your cardiovascular risk decades out, or your hormonal balance.

  • Total cholesterol (basic LDL/HDL split)
  • Basic fasting blood glucose
  • Kidney function (creatinine, eGFR)
  • Liver enzymes (ALT, AST)
  • Full blood count
  • TSH — thyroid screening only
  • No insulin resistance testing
  • No cardiovascular particle analysis
  • No hormonal depth
  • No inflammatory markers beyond CBC
Standard vs. Advanced
PHWC Advanced Panel — 60+ Markers

Prevention & Precision.

Our panels go far beyond the basics to give you a full biological picture — identifying risk years before symptoms appear and giving your physician the data to act before damage is done.

  • Lp(a), ApoB, ApoA1 & oxidised LDL
  • Fasting insulin + HOMA-IR score
  • High-sensitivity CRP (hsCRP)
  • Full thyroid — TSH, free T3 & free T4
  • DHEA-S, testosterone (total & free)
  • Oestradiol, cortisol, SHBG
  • Vitamin D3 (25-OH)
  • Omega-3 index
  • Ferritin, IL-6, ESR
  • Genetic risk markers & APOE genotyping

What We Test

Five Pillars of Comprehensive Testing.

Our diagnostic framework covers every major system that drives chronic disease risk — structured around five evidence-based categories, each tested in depth.

01

Metabolic Health

The foundation of chronic disease prevention. Identifies insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction years before a clinical diagnosis.

  • HbA1c & fasting glucose
  • Fasting insulin
  • HOMA-IR (insulin resistance score)
  • Triglycerides & uric acid
  • Body composition markers
  • Comprehensive metabolic panel
02

Cardiovascular Risk

Deep cardiovascular profiling that goes far beyond standard cholesterol — identifying particle type, size, and inflammatory drivers of arterial disease.

  • Lp(a) & ApoB / ApoA1
  • Oxidised LDL
  • hsCRP & homocysteine
  • Total cholesterol panel
  • Fibrinogen
  • Non-HDL cholesterol
03

Hormonal Panel

Comprehensive hormonal assessment covering thyroid, sex hormones, adrenal function, and binding proteins — the complete picture.

  • TSH, free T3 & free T4
  • Testosterone (total & free)
  • Oestradiol
  • DHEA-S & cortisol
  • SHBG & prolactin
  • LH & FSH where indicated
04

Inflammatory Markers

Chronic low-grade inflammation drives most major diseases. We measure its depth — from acute phase proteins to micronutrient status.

  • hsCRP & ESR
  • IL-6 (Interleukin-6)
  • Ferritin & transferrin
  • WBC differential
  • Vitamin D3 (25-OH)
  • Omega-3 index
05

Genetic Risk Screening

Understand your inherited predispositions. Genetic risk stratification allows targeted prevention before disease even has a chance to develop.

  • Polygenic CVD risk score
  • Type 2 diabetes risk
  • Cancer predisposition screen
  • APOE genotype
  • Alzheimer's risk stratification
  • Pharmacogenomics panel

How It Works

From Sample to Action Plan.

Every diagnostic at PHWC follows a structured four-step process — from booking through to a dedicated physician consultation with a written plan of action.

01

Booking

Schedule online or by phone. Choose from our Baseline Wellness Panel, Advanced Clinical Panel, Hormonal Panel, or Full Diagnostic Suite — our team will help you select the right one.

02

Sample Collection

On-site blood draw at our Hamilton clinic. No fasting required for most panels. Results are typically ready within 24–48 hours of your sample being processed in our lab.

03

Physician Interpretation

Your results are reviewed by a PHWC physician — not auto-generated by an algorithm. You receive a written clinical interpretation alongside the raw numbers, in plain English.

04

Results Consultation

A dedicated 30-minute consultation to walk through your results, discuss trends, and agree on clear next clinical steps — including any referrals or targeted interventions.
