About Dr. Pearson

Meet Your Trusted Guide in Precision Wellness

Dr. Joshua Pearson is a national speaker, published author, and award-winning clinician dedicated to bridging the gap between cutting-edge genetic science and everyday health.

He is a clinical pharmacist whose training goes well beyond standard licensure: postgraduate clinical residencies, three college degrees, and a deep bench of certifications supporting medication therapy for chronic and complex conditions. His experience spans six states and tribal communities, across more than two dozen pharmacy care models. Other clinicians seek him out for pharmaceutical judgment; he has drafted national-level policy, contributed to provisions in Ohio’s Revised Code and Administrative Code, and testified before the legislature. The American Pharmacists Association has adopted his collaborative practice agreement templates for use nationwide.

That expertise shows up where it matters—in high-stakes therapy such as precision aminoglycoside dosing and anticoagulation management, where careful decisions help protect hearing and reduce stroke risk. Dr. Pearson pairs that rigor with an approachable, down-to-earth style: complex ideas explained in plain language and a warm bedside manner, so patients feel informed—not overwhelmed.

In his consulting work, he specializes in translating complex genomic data into simple, actionable steps that empower patients to take control of their medication management and nutritional health.

"My mission is simple: to explain complex clinical science in plain English so you can make informed decisions about your DNA and your life."

What If Genetics Affect Your Medicine?

Pharmacogenomics “PGx” testing is a one-time genetic test that determines how your unique DNA profile affects your response to certain medications. It identifies if a drug will be effective for you or if you are at an increased risk of side effects.

Dr. Pearson contracts with top-tier PGx and NGx laboratories to provide you with the data you need to identify what foods to avoid, what exercises to use, and lifestyle choices to make in order to optimize your health.

Precision Medicine Advantage

Move beyond the "trial and error" approach to find the treatments that work for your body's specific biological makeup.

Why this work can be life-changing

Real-world examples of how pharmacogenomic and nutrigenomic insight can change treatment decisions—not years from now, but at the next prescription.

biotech Pharmacogenomics (PGx)

  • Clopidogrel after stents. Used to help prevent clots and stroke after stent placement, it can be ineffective in roughly 20–30% of people because of how the liver metabolizes it. Your genes can mean the drug works too strongly, too weakly, or not at all—PGx helps clarify what to expect.
  • Sleep and neurology meds. Drugs such as amitriptyline (used for sleep and other indications) can reach toxic levels for some people based on genetics.
  • Antidepressants. Common antidepressants simply do not work for some individuals because of how they are processed; having a PGx profile helps you and your clinician start closer to the right choice.
  • Seizure medications. Many anti-seizure drugs are titrated to effect. PGx can suggest a smarter starting dose—or flag medications unlikely to work in your body no matter how high the dose goes.

nutrition Nutrigenomics (NGx)

  • Folate and mood. Reduced conversion of folate can disrupt serotonin and dopamine balance in ways that are hard to fix with antidepressants alone; some people need targeted support such as L-methylfolate to help restore balance.
  • Oxidative stress and inflammation. Genetic risk patterns can inform diet and lifestyle so you can pursue goals without having to “learn the hard way.”
  • Genes and environment. Some risks stay quiet until an environmental trigger flips them on. Knowing baseline risk can guide choices—around foods, habits, and exposures—that support healthier expression of those genes.
  • Caffeine. Metabolism varies widely; slower metabolism can make even modest caffeine load harder on mood and sleep, while faster metabolizers may feel withdrawal, cravings, or the need for multiple servings to get through the day.

Medication Therapy Management (MTM) Session

A one-on-one consultation with a clinical pharmacist to optimize medication use, spot gaps in care, improve outcomes, explore cost-saving options, and help prevent medication-related problems. Dr. Pearson holds a national certification in Medication Therapy Management. Sessions are often booked in a 60-minute window; many visits wrap in about 25–45 minutes depending on how many conditions are in scope.

  • check_circle Comprehensive medication review with actionable recommendations
  • check_circle Coordination support you can share with your prescriber
  • check_circle Focus on safety, effectiveness, and affordability
“I never knew this medication was causing so many of my problems until we talked. I gave your recommendations to my provider and they changed my medication—I haven’t felt this good in years.”
