Tom’s story: genomic testing and treatment for Lynch syndrome
This film series, ‘My genomics journey: three perspectives’, was developed to shine a light on the breadth of experiences of patients living with genomic conditions, and to understand the life-changing impact that a diagnosis can have for a person and their family.
In this film, we speak to Tom who was sent for genomic testing based on a family history of bowel cancer, and was subsequently diagnosed with Lynch syndrome. He explains his experience with the NHS while undergoing testing and the impact the diagnosis has had on his life.
