In a decisive move to redefine preventive healthcare, Fortis Memorial Research Institute has launched the ‘Fortis Genomic 360 Wellness Program’. This hospital-based initiative directly integrates genomic science into clinical decision-making through a coordinated, multidisciplinary care model. Unlike standalone genetic services, the program operates within Fortis’ clinical ecosystem, where specialists from cardiology, orthopedics, oncology, nutrition, and preventive medicine collaborate to convert genomic insights into actionable, patient-specific strategies.
From Genetic Insights to Real Clinical Impact
Moreover, the program leverages Fortis Gurugram’s multidisciplinary approach to move beyond simple risk prediction. Instead, it focuses on delivering tangible clinical outcomes. Doctors interpret genomic findings alongside organ-specific conditions, co-morbidities, and lifestyle factors. As a result, experts validate, contextualize, and integrate every genomic signal into a personalized care pathway. This ensures not only early detection but also improved long-term health outcomes.
Advancing Predictive and Personalized Care
Speaking at the launch, Dr. Shrinidhi Nathany, Consultant in Molecular Haematology and Oncology, emphasized that the program marks a shift toward predictive and personalized healthcare. He noted that genomic insights enable clinicians to identify disease risks early, design targeted preventive strategies, and make timely, informed treatment decisions. Consequently, patients gain deeper awareness of their genetic health, empowering them to take proactive steps toward better outcomes.
Addressing India’s Shift in Disease Burden
Furthermore, Dr. Rahul Bhargava, Principal Director of Hematology and Bone Marrow Transplant, highlighted the need for transformation in India’s healthcare approach. He pointed out that the system has traditionally been symptom-driven. However, with the rapid rise in non-communicable diseases, this model is no longer sufficient. Therefore, genomics-driven programs are essential to transition toward predictive, preventive, and personalized care tailored to India’s unique genetic landscape.
A Step Towards Future-Ready Healthcare
As per the press release, Yash Rawat, Senior Vice President and SBU Head at Fortis Memorial Research Institute, described the launch as a significant milestone. He stated that integrating advanced genomic technologies into mainstream care reflects Fortis Gurugram’s commitment to innovation, precision medicine, and compassionate healthcare.
Redefining Holistic Healthcare Delivery
Ultimately, the Fortis Genomic 360 Wellness Program represents a shift toward a more holistic and future-ready healthcare model in India. By combining innovation with multidisciplinary expertise, the initiative sets a new benchmark for delivering comprehensive, personalized, and preventive healthcare solutions.
