Microba GI Navigator is a comprehensive gut microbiome testing service designed for patients with complex or ongoing gastrointestinal concerns who would benefit from additional clinical interpretation and guidance.
GI Navigator combines Microba's advanced microbiome testing with a detailed health questionnaire and a personalised interpretation of the results.
How is GI Navigator different from Microbiome Explorer?
Both GI Navigator and Microbiome Explorer Comprehensive include the same laboratory testing and analysis.
The key difference is the level of interpretation provided.
Microbiome Explorer Comprehensive: Provides detailed microbiome and gastrointestinal health results for your referring healthcare practitioner to independently interpret and use to guide your care.
GI Navigator: Includes the same comprehensive laboratory testing, alongside a health questionnaire and an additional interpretation that brings together your test results and clinical information to provide insights and suggested next steps.
Which test is right for me?
GI Navigator may be more suitable for patients with complex gastrointestinal concerns where additional interpretation would help support clinical decision-making.
Microbiome Explorer may be more suitable when your healthcare practitioner is comfortable interpreting your results independently and developing a personalised management plan.
Both options require a referral from an approved healthcare practitioner, who can help determine which test is most appropriate for your individual needs.
