DNA testing

DNA paternity testing with clear options.

SMS Medical offers paternity testing options for personal knowledge and situations that require documented chain-of-custody procedures.

Legal vs. non-legal testing

Non-legal testing is generally intended for personal knowledge. Legal testing uses identity verification and chain-of-custody procedures intended for situations where results may need to be used officially. Confirm requirements before booking.

How samples are collected

Paternity testing commonly uses a buccal swab from the inside of the cheek. The collection process is quick and non-invasive.

If results will be used in court, immigration, child-support or another official proceeding, tell SMS Medical before collection so the appropriate process can be followed.
