The psychiatrists coming out of med school are using DNA whenever possible. In the US Medicare pays for the testing and some private insurers cover the cost if 2 or more drugs have been tried. It's an amazing science and can literally take years off the trial and error process. If I was newly diagnosed with depression, I would gladly pay the $600-$900 to find the best treatments as quickly as possible.
