Center for Prevention and Early Detection

About Us

The Alexian Brothers Hospital Network's Center for Prevention and Early Detection is at the forefront of preventive medicine. We make it possible to not only detect diseases like cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, asthma and arthritis earlier, when they are most treatable, but to predict who will develop them and even prevent them. Our goal is to establish a lifelong partnership with you in an effort to achieve optimal health.

Your family health history is the single best predictor of what your own health might look like in the future. By studying and charting your information in your family tree, our world-class health care specialists can identify patterns of disease from previous generations and help you understand what health risks you may face now and in the future. If your family history suggests a strong predisposition to disease, your Alexian Brothers health care team goes to work harnessing the best resources that emerging science has to offer.
