Physician-Led Integrated by an MVC physician into your prevention plan.
160+ Genes Plus APOE testing, across cardiovascular, cancer, metabolic and brain health.
Genetic Counselling Through the Dynacare / Invitae testing pathway.
Action Plan A personalized Genomics Action Plan.

The Program

Genetic Testing

A genetic report alone is not a health plan. We interpret your results alongside your family history, bloodwork, and risk profile, then build a plan around what actually matters.

Physician-led genetic risk screening for the men who want to prevent, not react.

Why this matters

What The Strategic Genomics Screen Can Reveal

A 160+ gene clinical panel plus APOE testing, across four major areas of inherited risk.

01

Hereditary Cancer Risk

Inherited variants (BRCA1/2, Lynch and others) that raise lifetime cancer risk.

02

Cardiovascular Risk

Inherited lipid, cardiomyopathy, arrhythmia and aortic risk.

03

Familial High Cholesterol

High LDL from birth (LDLR, APOB, PCSK9) that raises early heart-disease risk.

04

Metabolic & Systemic Risk

Hemochromatosis, alpha-1 antitrypsin, and other inherited metabolic conditions.

05

Medication & Family Risk

Actionable findings that inform medication safety and family risk planning.

06

Brain-Health Risk (APOE)

APOE ε4 status, a risk modifier for late-onset Alzheimer’s, not a diagnosis.

BY THE NUMBERS

The Case For Genetic Risk Screening

Most high-risk inherited variants go undetected under usual care. Screening finds clinically meaningful risk in time to act on it.

Key Things To Understand

  • A positive result does not mean disease will develop
  • A negative result does not rule out risk
  • APOE ε4 indicates susceptibility, not a dementia diagnosis
  • Best interpreted with family history & bloodwork
  • Ordered through a clinical genetic pathway
  • Includes genetic counselling

Boris S, Men’s Vitality Clinic patient, video testimonial

“I was dealing with chronic injuries, low energy, and slower recovery, and I felt like I was underperforming. Since starting the MVC program, my strength, recovery, and energy have improved dramatically. I can push harder in the gym and on the mats, and I honestly feel like I’m in my early 20s again.”

I’m so grateful I came across the men’s vitality clinic. I have worked with a few TRT clinics and they are by far the best. James was amazing with communication when I rung through the explain my situation and made sure I was able to speak to Dr Jesse on the same day as it was a time sensitive matter. Then Dr Jesse was very understanding and helpful. Great service and would highly recommend

I'm 55 years young, and was referred to Men's Vitality Clinic by some very good friends, as I was having some health challenges. I connected with Dr. Jesse who has been a great help to me, and a really good guy who is very easy to talk to, and very understanding. He totally understood my challenges, as I have gained way too much weight over the years, and developed a fatty liver. He did a very, very thorough bloodwork with me first, and went through it in great detail, and showed me which of the Packages would be best suitable for me to help me in my health journey. In the past 5 months I've dropped 25lbs and lost 2-3 inches off my waist, and feel so much better in all areas of my health. I have the motivation and drive for training and nutrition that I've been missing for years. I still want to lose another 25lbs, and their system is working so well for me for long term health and results. I recommended MVC to people already, and would suggest them to anyone who wants to live a healthier lifestyle. Thank you Dr. Jesse and MVC!

Dr Jesse has been very knowledgeable throughout answering any questions I had. I am seeing very positive results and haven’t felt this healthy in a long time. I recommend this team to anyone who is curious about it.

You don’t know, what you don’t know! I didn’t realize what my body was lacking until I had a consultation with Dr. Gill. I was ignoring all the signs my body was giving me. After having my first consultation with Dr Gill, I felt a pressure free, safe environment to discuss my current health concerns and future health goals. WE did some tests and established my baseline. Then WE created a fully customized approach that was tailored towards my health and lifestyle goals. As a 35 year old male, I have never felt & looked healthier in my life! I would highly recommend Men’s Vitality for anyone looking to improve or maintain their current and long-term health. Having these trusted physicians in my corner is the best decision I have ever made!!
