Controlled-substance monitoring in Aventura
Refills are tied to clinical follow-up. Portal messages do not restart stimulants or benzodiazepines.
What Medication Management actually includes
Leftover 'affordable refill' slugs are not a cash-pay promise.
Hormone-mood medications are reconciled with estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone plans.
Clinical FAQ
Are leftover 'affordable refill' URLs a discount?
No. They are retained slugs. Billing follows insurance contracts.
What labs do I need?
Depends on the drug: TSH, lithium level, A1c, etc. We will list them in the plan.
Can I refuse a medication?
Always. Informed consent includes the option of no medication.
Can a PMHNP-BC prescribe psychiatric medication in Florida?
Yes. Dr. Chatelier is a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. Prescribing is within Florida APRN scope, with monitoring.
Do you prescribe stimulants?
When the evaluation supports ADHD and PDMP/safety checks pass. Not from a questionnaire alone.
Where is the office for in-person med checks?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 20 minutes from Aventura.
Is your practice discreet for Aventura patients?
Absolutely. We maintain strict HIPAA compliance, and our telehealth option ensures complete privacy. Many Aventura patients prefer virtual appointments from their residence or office.
Do you address image-related anxiety and mood disorders?
Yes. We treat the full spectrum of anxiety and mood disorders, including those related to social pressure, perfectionism, and performance expectations common in high-achieving communities.
