I had a form of it done several months ago. It was useful. I always responded so badly to SSRIs, and found that I have a variation that causes me to metabolize them very poorly. On the positive side, l learned that I metabolize dopamine too quickly in my frontal lobes. TMS and drugs that cause dopamine to hang around longer, such as AAPs and Lamictal, are indicated for this. Although only a few genes are tested at present, it's a good beginning. And my insurance paid for it!
