In general, MGL prefers not to recommend specific referral laboratories for specific tests. That being said, we
would have confidence in recommending any of the publically funded Canadian laboratories and suggest them
as a first choice, if the particular test is available; this is in keeping with Ministry guidelines.
We send many cases to Prevention Genetics, GeneDx, and the Molecular Genetics Laboratory at Baylor
College of Medicine, all in the United States. We particularly favour Prevention Genetics because their testing
and customer service are of very high quality.
For FSHD, MGL historically referred out testing to University of Iowa Diagnostic Laboratories (UIDL)
( ), who offer excellent service at competitive pricing. MSP funding approval
is now required to coordinate FSHD testing.
If you need further assistance in choosing a referral laboratory -- after reviewing (1) the options on
/ , (2) the aforementioned recommendations, and (3) the
details provided by each testing laboratory on their respective websites – contact the MGL Molecular Geneticist
on service at MGLOnService@phsa.ca.
