Psychotropic/DNA genetic testing is available to patients. This simple cheek swab test allows Dr. Liana Hategan to gather information on how a patient’s body metabolizes, or responds to different psychiatric medications. This information can lead to a more precise dosing and a quicker recovery process for patients. Many Patients who have had failed treatments find this Psychotropic/DNA genetic information helpful. Dr. Liana Hategan uses Millennium Health labs and their technology to process her genetic tests.

Pharmacogenomic tests analyze patients’ genetic variations in their DNA. With these tests Dr. Liana Hategan can analyze how a patient’s body will metabolize common psychiatric medications used to treat Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, Bipolar, Schizophrenia along with many others.
