Psychiatric medication management for Dania Beach
Crisis plus a medication question is still a crisis: 988 or ER first.
What Medication Management actually includes
Tapering is scheduled. Paroxetine, venlafaxine, benzodiazepines, and stimulants each have different withdrawal physics.
Psych med management includes saying no when the requested drug does not match the diagnosis.
How Medication Management is structured
Send the prescription to a named pharmacy; document the pharmacy.
Telehealth visits verify Florida location.
If side effects appear, do not wait for the next quarterly slot — tighten follow-up.
Revisit the original diagnosis if two classes have failed.
What we rule in — and rule out
Need for metabolic or neurologic monitoring on an existing antipsychotic or mood stabilizer.
Not indicated for out-of-state telehealth prescribing.
Intolerable side effects that might respond to dose change, switch, or adjunct.
Failed or partial response to a current agent after an adequate trial.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
ZIP 33004 is the lead postal code listed for Dania Beach. Mail-order labs and pharmacy routing still use the patient's actual address, not this page's city token.
Dania Beach (Broward County) has about 32,000 residents. The nearest Peace & Heart Wellness exam room is the Hollywood office, about 10 minutes from Dania Beach Pier and the antique district.
Revisit the original diagnosis if two classes have failed.
No-show after a high-risk start triggers outreach.
Questions we hear about Medication Management
Will you take over my current list?
After a diagnostic review. We do not rubber-stamp unsafe combinations.
Can I refuse a medication?
Always. Informed consent includes the option of no medication.
Will I get a refill without a visit?
Not as a routine. Monitoring interval is part of the prescription.
What about pregnancy?
Tell us before a prescription is sent. Some agents need specialist coordination.
What is PDMP?
Florida's prescription drug monitoring program. We check it before controlled substances.
Where is the office for in-person med checks?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 10 minutes from Dania Beach.
How close is your office to Dania Beach?
Extremely close — our Hollywood office is approximately 5-10 minutes from Dania Beach. We're one of the nearest psychiatric practices for Dania Beach residents.
Is the practice large or small?
We're a focused private practice where you work directly with Dr. Chatelier, DNP — not a large clinic. This ensures continuity of care and a strong therapeutic relationship.

Missed labs = delayed titration.
Benzodiazepines: indication, duration limit, taper language.
Informed consent stored in the chart.
Formulary alternatives offered without pretending they are identical.

Request a Medication Management visit by calling (888) 307-2199 or using the booking form. Bring current medications, prior labs, and a list of what has already been tried.
