Clinical FAQ
Self-esteem focus only?
Not if medical risk is present.
Do you prescribe GLP-1s?
When medically appropriate and after eating-disorder screening. Not as a cosmetic product.
Can I refuse weight as a goal?
Yes. We can treat binge-eating and mood without a scale goal.
Sleep?
Apnea and insomnia are part of weight care.
Is this a weight-loss spa?
No. It is psychiatric and metabolic overlap care.
Do I need a dietitian?
Often yes. We refer.
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.
How Wellness & Weight Management is structured
Set behavior metrics, not only pounds.
Document GLP-1 risks if used.
Screen restriction, binge, purge, laxatives.
Follow up; depression relapse often precedes weight relapse.
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.
South Florida heat, hurricane disruption, shift work, and multigenerational households show up in Dania Beach presentations. Wellness & Weight Management intake asks about those stressors explicitly.
Stop dangerous 'wellness' products.
Telehealth for follow-up; office for exams.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence
Alcohol quantification.
GLP-1: contraindication check, follow-up GI/mood.
No IV for weight loss.
Suicide screen — eating disorders carry risk.
10-minute path to the Hollywood office
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Wellness & Weight Management visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
