Questions we hear about Wellness & Weight Management
Is this a weight-loss spa?
No. It is psychiatric and metabolic overlap care.
Crisis / medical instability?
ER. Especially with restriction and electrolyte risk.
Who is the clinician?
Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC.
Can my antipsychotic stay?
Sometimes yes with monitoring; sometimes a switch is safer. That is a risk-benefit talk.
Hormone weight loss?
Labs if indicated. Hormones are not a fat-melting SKU.
Insurance?
Verify. Metabolic meds and visits have different coverage rules.
How far are you from NSU?
Our Hollywood office is approximately 10 minutes from Nova Southeastern University's main campus, making us a convenient option for students seeking psychiatric care.
Do you treat college students from Davie?
Absolutely. We work with many college-age patients on ADHD management, anxiety, depression, and adjustment disorders common in academic settings.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence

Access from Davie
ZIP 33314 is the lead postal code listed for Davie. 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 Davie presentations. Wellness & Weight Management intake asks about those stressors explicitly.
Davie sits in Broward County. County-level resources (crisis lines, hospital ERs, IOP programs) are discussed during Wellness & Weight Management when a higher level of care is safer than outpatient titration.
IV vitamin drips promised fat loss.
Parking, hours, and video visits
Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Davie patients who drive 12 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
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.
Follow up; depression relapse often precedes weight relapse.
Labs as indicated.
