Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment. At St. George Hospital, we go beyond standard testing to uncover the root causes of complex conditions through comprehensive, multi-layered diagnostic workups.
Many patients arrive at St. George Hospital after years of inconclusive testing elsewhere. Standard diagnostic panels often miss the underlying drivers of complex chronic diseases.
Our diagnostic approach is designed to fill these gaps. We combine conventional laboratory medicine with specialized testing for immune function, microbial burden, metabolic dysfunction, toxic load, and hormonal imbalance. The goal is to build a complete picture of each patient’s health status so that treatment can be precisely targeted. Diagnostic programs are overseen by Dr. Martin Rößner, Chief Physician for Internal Medicine, ensuring that every workup is clinically thorough and guided by decades of experience in complex chronic disease.
Every diagnostic workup is individualized based on the patient’s condition, symptoms, and medical history.
Our diagnostic capabilities are organized into four specialized areas. Select a category to learn more about the specific tests and evaluations available.
Comprehensive functional assessments including metabolic and mitochondrial testing, hormonal evaluation, gut health analysis, and toxicological screening. These tests reveal the underlying mechanisms that standard panels often miss.
Review and coordination of imaging studies (CT, MRI, PET), specialized cancer diagnostics including circulating tumor cell analysis and chemosensitivity testing, and advanced physiological assessments.
Extended blood panels, immune system profiling, Lyme and tick-borne disease testing, autoantibody screening, and comprehensive inflammatory marker assessment from our in-house and partner laboratories.
Specialized neurological assessments including brain mapping, nerve conduction studies, and functional neurological testing to guide neuromodulation treatment protocols.
Our diagnostic process is thorough but efficient, designed to provide clear answers as quickly as possible so that treatment can begin without unnecessary delay.
Our physicians conduct a thorough physical examination, assessing signs that may point to underlying conditions not captured in previous evaluations.
Blood draws and sample collection for the full range of relevant tests. Most results are available within 24 to 72 hours from our in-house and partner laboratories.
Your physician reviews all results in context, explains findings clearly, and discusses how the diagnostic picture informs the recommended treatment approach.
Each condition we treat has a tailored diagnostic protocol designed to identify the specific factors relevant to that disease.
Multi-method Borrelia testing, co-infection panels, immune profiling, and inflammatory marker assessment.
Tumor markers, circulating tumor cells, chemosensitivity testing, immune status, and imaging review.
Immune function analysis, inflammatory markers, autoantibody screening, and organ function evaluation.
