Hello

My Journey into PGx Consultancy

My thirteen-year experience in the retail pharmacy industry has had a significant impact on my career path. I have seen patients from different walks of life come through our doors, struggling with various health conditions and constantly changing medications. It was a frustrating experience for them, and I felt helpless as a pharmacist to offer them the best solutions.

However, my years of experience led me to discover the exciting field of pharmacogenomics (PGx). It is a field that combines genetics and pharmacology, aiming to personalize drug therapy for each individual. This discovery was like finding a treasure that provided the solution I had been searching for.

I was determined to learn more about PGx, and I attended conferences, took specialized courses, and read extensively. With my retail pharmacy background, I knew I could bridge the gap between the complexity of PGx and its practical application in real-life patient care.

I partnered with various PGx testing laboratories, such as CDR, AccessDx, OneOme, and ClarityX, to provide comprehensive genetic assessments, interpret results, and offer personalized medication recommendations.

The transformation I witnessed in my patients' lives was remarkable. They no longer had to endure the side effects of ineffective medications or spend their savings on medications that didn't work. Instead, they received treatments tailored to their unique genetic profiles, leading to improved health outcomes, reduced healthcare costs, and enhanced overall well-being.

Becoming a consultant pharmacist in the world of PGx was more than just a career choice; it was a calling that allowed me to make a profound impact on the lives of those in need. I knew I was on the right path, providing the right medication to the right patient at the right dose, a beacon of hope in the world of healthcare.
