GeneSight®

Precision Medication Guidance, Backed by Your DNA


Finding the right psychiatric medication should not be a process of elimination. GeneSight pharmacogenomic testing analyzes your unique genetic profile to help guide medication selection — reducing guesswork and getting you to effective treatment faster.


Tara Callow is a registered GeneSight provider.

What Is GeneSight?

GeneSight is a clinically validated pharmacogenomic test that analyzes genes affecting how your body metabolizes and responds to psychiatric medications. A simple cheek swab is all it takes.

Why It Matters

Not all medications work the same way for every person. Genetic variations can affect whether a medication is likely to be effective, cause side effects, or require dose adjustment — before you ever take the first pill.

How It Works

A cheek swab is sent to the GeneSight lab. Results are returned within days and reviewed at your next visit. The report categorizes medications into use-as-directed, moderate, and significant gene-drug interaction categories.

Insurance and Payment

Self pay options are also available
