Welcome to Hidalgo TMS Psychiatric Services the leading of mental health.
Genetic Testing
Genetic testing is a medical procedure that analyzes a person’s DNA to identify changes (mutations) that may cause or increase the risk of developing certain genetic disorders or diseases. Understanding your genetic makeup can help create a treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs, leading to more effective and personalized mental health care.
How Genetic Testing Works
Sometimes finding the right medication to treat a mental health problem takes some trial and error. Medications that work for some people may not work for others or may have significant side effects. A person’s genes are one of the factors that can influence a medication’s effectiveness.
Through genetic testing, we analyze your DNA to determine how your body processes medications. This information helps psychiatrists and healthcare providers make informed decisions about which treatments will work best for you.
Genetic Testing Benefits
Genetic tests can help psychiatrists select medication for individual patients based on their genetic makeup. The benefits of genetic testing include:
- Personalized treatment plans tailored to your unique genetic profile.
- Reduced trial and error when selecting medications.
- Minimized side effects by identifying medications that may cause adverse reactions.
- Improved effectiveness of prescribed treatments.
