Alberta Clinician Introduces ENDOSURE Endometriosis Test

EDMONTON, AB, March 2, 2026. In a groundbreaking development for women’s health, Dr. Sam Azer of Links Medical Clinic has become the first clinician in Alberta to offer the TIER-1 ENDOSURE endometriosis test. This innovative test promises to revolutionize the way endometriosis is diagnosed, providing rapid and accurate results without the need for invasive procedures. The introduction of ENDOSURE is expected to significantly reduce the diagnostic gap that many women face, which can often extend for years. Dr. Azer’s commitment to improving women’s health extends beyond the clinic. Dr. Azer is also the lead speaker at the upcoming YEG Parents Women’s Health Symposium on April 25, 2026. The symposium aims to educate and empower women regarding women’s health issues, including a focus on endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a chronic condition that affects millions of women worldwide, often leading to severe pain and complications. Traditionally, the diagnosis of endometriosis has been a lengthy process, with many women waiting between five to ten years to receive a definitive answer. Dr. Azer emphasized the importance of this new testing method, stating, “The goal of EndoSure is to diagnose endometriosis very early on, without operations or procedures, offering significant relief for patients who typically wait 5 to 10 years for a diagnosis.” This early detection can lead to timely treatment and improved quality of life for those affected.

The ENDOSURE test is the only TIER-1 endometriosis test authorized for sale by Health Canada and a new offering in the Canadian healthcare landscape. The test is designed to provide near-instant, highly accurate results with testing taking less than an hour, drastically reducing the time it takes for women to receive a diagnosis. This rapid turnaround is a game changer for patients who have long suffered in silence, often unsure of the cause of their symptoms.

Maria Porcellato expressed her enthusiasm for the ENDOSURE test and its potential impact on women’s health. She stated, “Women have waited far too long for accurate, accessible, Tier 1 diagnostic testing. ENDOSURE transforms a frustrating decade-long journey into a timely, objective diagnostic process.” This sentiment reflects the collective frustration many women have experienced while seeking answers for their health concerns.

Carolyn Plican also highlighted the significance of partnerships in advancing women’s health care. She noted, “Partnering with clinics like Links Medical Clinic is an important step toward making rapid diagnosis accessible to Albertan women. Champions like Dr. Azer will set new standards.” The collaboration between EndoDiagnosis, the Canadian distributor for Endosure, and local clinics is crucial in ensuring that women have access to the best possible care and resources.

The April 25, 2026 Women’s Health Symposium aims to educate and empower women with a particular focus on endometriosis. Hosted by YEG Parents and sponsored by Methapharm and Theralogix Canada, the recognized need for advancements in women’s health seeded this event, which promises to be an informative gathering for women seeking to enhance their understanding of health issues that affect them.
