To assess the feasibility and impact of incorporating a multidisciplinary pharmacogenomics (PGx) service within an underserved behavioral health clinic, with an emphasis on clinician perceptions.This study was conducted in two phases at the Texas A&M Family Care Clinic. Phase one involved an online cross-sectional survey of the multidisciplinary clinic team to assess their knowledge, attitudes, and readiness for PGx integration. Phase two detailed the development and implementation of a PGx service within the Integrated Behavioral Health (IBH) clinic, outlining the workflow and collaborative approach used to offer genetic testing to eligible patients.
