I’m not only a patient who took GeneSight, I’m also a licensed clinical social worker. I tell my clients about the GeneSight® test and encourage them to ask their clinician…

I wasn’t in ‘fight or flight’ anymore. I was just me

I would say the GeneSight test was probably the most valuable thing in my life. If it wasn’t for it, I would probably still be trying to find medications. I would still be trying to find something that would work. I would still be trying to find my way out of the dark.

Rather than guessing, it’s worth it to find out

When I learned about the GeneSight test, I saw the need in those patients who may have had two or more medication or dose changes without any noted effective improvement of symptoms. That usually prompts me to order GeneSight to examine potential medication metabolism issues associated with genetic variation to help inform my clinical decision-making.

One of the real advantages of being able to incorporate the GeneSight test results into our treatment is that, of course, we’re seeing better outcomes, which is always our goal.
