Clinical FAQ
Is brain fog always menopause?
No. Sleep, ADHD, depression, B12, and thyroid are on the list.
Do you prescribe HRT?
When indicated after history, labs, and risk counseling, and often in coordination with GYN. This is not a pellet mill.
Are you a gynecologist?
No. Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC is a PMHNP-BC providing hormone-informed psychiatric care.
Do you do pellets?
We do not run a pellet-first model. If a GYN uses them, we still require a psychiatric formulation.
Is this anti-aging?
No.
What about breast cancer risk?
We discuss it. Personal history may require oncology/GYN before estrogen.
Do you serve downtown Fort Lauderdale?
Yes. Our Hollywood office is about 20 minutes from downtown Fort Lauderdale, and we offer telehealth appointments for busy downtown professionals.
Can you help with work-related anxiety and burnout?
Absolutely. We see many Fort Lauderdale professionals dealing with workplace stress, burnout, and performance anxiety. Our evaluations identify root causes and create targeted treatment plans.
