DDC Surprises Paternity Clients for Father's Day
DNA Diagnostics Center Press Release
Fairfield, OH. June 21, 2007—When several men answered their phones last week, they received a Father's Day surprise. These men were given the good news that their paternity testing balances had been waived by DNA Diagnostics Center (DDC) as part of its annual Father's Day tradition.
Since 1998, DDC has been offering discounted and free paternity tests to clients in need around Father's Day.
This year, DDC reviewed existing cases to choose the recipients of the gift. The cases were each evaluated for financial need and family circumstances. Several were chosen to have their entire balances paid in full by DDC, including overnight shipping fees for the men to receive their test results in time for Father's Day.
"This is the best thing to happen to me!" said one man.*
Another said, "That's pretty awesome!"
One man just repeated, "That's a blessing!" as DDC Assistant Manager Dustyn Bunsold informed him of his vanished debt.
"In the paternity testing industry, you truly understand the impact of science on people's lives," said Jerry Watkins, Family Relationship Manager at DDC . "It's very important to our clients to know that we are dedicated to our company mission, to make DNA testing services accessible and affordable to all."
Provider of 3 out of every 4 private paternity tests, DDC offers DNA paternity testing for $475. This fee covers testing for a child and an alleged father, with or without the participation of the child's mother. Results are available within 5 working days of the laboratory's receipt of the DNA samples. Because all DNA tests undergo DDC's unique Dual Process™, paternity clients can be confident in the accuracy of their results.
"Everyone was so appreciative," Bunsold said. "It was very rewarding to help people who have difficulty obtaining a quality DNA test."
Bunsold is excited to be part of this Father's Day tradition. "This gift really helps clients who have been waiting to find answers."
*For confidentiality, the names of the clients in this story have been withheld.
