Practice Details: We see patients on Tuesdays and Thursdays and appointments are scheduled for 60 minutes; CNP plus clinical pharmacist in all appointments (you would never be alone)
• If you are available only on certain days or times, we can try to make it work with our pharmacists’ schedules (we also must be licensed in the states where we see patients and we do not all have licensure in all 4 states; 2 of our pharmacists also teach at NDSU/SDSU)).
We see patients from SD, ND, MN, and IA; we currently see patients in-person or virtually (all virtual is totally fine if you can help us out)
• We see an average of 25 patients per month
• Provider referrals or self-referrals
• The most common reason for referrals is meds not working or a lor of side effects with treatment for depression/anxiety, GERD, pain, hyperlipidemia
We see patients for a few different kinds of appointments
1. pre-test (before they have had PGx testing) where we describe purpose of testing, benefits/limitations, availability, cost, turnaround time, and explanation of future benefits, etc.; order testing if the patient wants to be tested
2. post-test (after results are available) where we discuss individual results and how it applied to their medications and medical history (pharmacist provides a clinical note and will be in appointment for any medication questions), provide educational handouts and a copy of their results; discuss any recommendations based on available guidelines. We do not prescribe in the PGx clinic since we do not see them more than twice> we reach out to the patients ordering provider with our recommendations.
3. Pre/post (patient had testing done before they are seen in clinic). This appt includes elements from both the pre and post.
We have several learners (pharmacy students from NDSU, SDSU, and other pharmacy colleges) that are precepted by our pharmacists.
