Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Are you for real?
    Furnetics is an established genetic research division of Sean McElroy Unlimited and has authored research to and developed methods to improve the quality of life through careful biochemical engineering. Prior to 1996 Furnetics was known as Midwest Genetic Solutions. For over 23 years we have improved the quality of life of thousands through our advances in drug research, gene therapy, and our newer services such as Phenotype Renovations®. While this serivce may seem so radical as to be fictional, it is only one evolution in the broad array of technologies Furnetics has already developed. We are very real.
  2. Does Furnetics offer financing options?
    While Furnetics strives to make our services available to all interested customers, we do not offer financing options on our services. Payment for services is required in full prior to rendering of services. We apologize that we cannot offer grants, waivers, or discounts towards our services.
  3. Is this safe?
    Our Genetic Maintenance® and Genetic Selection® services have met with extreme success over the years. In the last five years we have a success rate of 92%, a satisfaction rate of 90%, and a mortality rate of less than 1%. While we believe this is an outstanding statistic given the nature of stress genetic re-engineering puts on the human body, the US Food and Drug Administration is conducting clinical trials of our services, much as new drugs to market go through, to determine at the federal level that such services are indeed safe. We fully support the effors of the FDA and are fully cooperating in this investigation.

    Our Phenotype Renovations® service has been extremely successful over the past two years. Years of computer genetic structure modeling and animal testing has allowed us to carefully refine our services to ensure maximum client safety at all times through the procedure. We have a success rate of 96%, a satisfaction rate of 82%, and a mortality rate of zero.
  4. What about moral and ethical concerns regarding the work you do? Aren't you "playing God"?
    Simply put, if helping individuals reach their full potential through the metered and careful use of science is "playing God", then many firms engage in this behavior every day. Furnetics can only change the genetic make-up and physical characteristics of a living person; we cannot change who they really are. Consider our products a cosmetic service rather than an ethically-questionable practice.
  5. What if I'm not satisfied with a morphic transformation? Can I get a refund or be changed back or to a different morphic type?
    Choosing and committing to the radical changes that stem from the use of our Phenotype Renovations® services are not to be taken lightly. Interested candidates must complete a full spectrum of physical diagnotic tests and psychological profiles to determine suitability for these services. Over the course of at least 10 months, candidates must meet with a Furnetics counselor every two weeks to discuss personal and social issues associated with this service, prior to a transformation. We provide no service to individuals who we cannot determine are ready to commit to the end results. Because of the extensive planning and labor involved with each client, we cannot offer refunds to unsatisfied customers. Similarly, we cannot offer rebates towards a second transformation (nor do we ever recommend a second transformation due to the physical limitations of the original human body). Finally, candidates must understand that transformations are almost certainly permanent due to a number of physical and technological limitations. However, we hope you rest assured in the fact that we've never had a single client ever actually ask us any of these questions after their successful transformation.
  6. What is the minimum age of a client to use your Phenotype Renovations® service?
    Furnetics has no set minimum age for clients, but we do require several age-related biological factors to be present in clients before we can begin tailoring a solution. Our service requires that all bone growth is complete in an individual, which is marked by the fusion of the growing ends of bones. This typically happens between the ages of 16 and 18. Our service also requires the stabilization of certain hormones related to puberty, which happens between ages 10 and 20 for females and ages 11 and 25 for males. Typically, clients over the age of 21 are ideal candidates for our service, but only a comprehensive physical examination can determine eligibility.
  7. Are there any diseases or conditions that limit eligibility for the Phenotype Renovations® service?
    Yes. Our service is tested and known to be successful given very stringent physiological conditions of our clients. We have not performed extensive clinical trials of our various processes on condition matricies that represent certain chronic diseases and conditions, and therefore we cannot safely perform our services upon individuals with any of the following conditions:
    1. Anemia, cirrhosis, diabetes (Type I or II), HIV/AIDS, hypertension, hypoglycemia, lukemia, lupus, menopause, penicillin allergy, thyroid/gland hormonal regulatory issues, and organ transplant recipients among others
    2. Family histories of certain conditions, such as suicide, depression, cancer, and hypertension
    3. Certain brain chemistry and mental conditions, including chemically-treated bipolar disorder, depression, and seasonal affective disorder
    4. Some behavioral histories exclude clients from eligibility, such as history of illegal drug use, morbid obesity, and a history of recurring sexually-transmitted diseases.
    However, some conditions can be overcome by the process, such as certain skeletal and muscular disorders and skin conditions. Only a comprehensive physical examination can determine eligibility.
