In-office versus Florida telehealth
South Florida heat, hurricane disruption, shift work, and multigenerational households show up in Hallandale Beach presentations. Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing intake asks about those stressors explicitly.
Hallandale Beach (Broward County) has about 42,000 residents. The nearest Peace & Heart Wellness exam room is the Hollywood office, about 12 minutes from Gulfstream Park and the A1A beach district.
Give timing/fasting instructions.
Refuse to interpret another clinic's mystery panel if it is uninterpretable — we may redraw targeted tests.
Schedule with Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC
Start with one thorough Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing evaluation rather than a series of 15-minute check-ins. Book at (888) 307-2199 or online.
If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.

Florida telehealth psychiatry is available to established and new patients located in Florida at the time of the visit, subject to licensure and clinical appropriateness. An in-person evaluation at the Hollywood office may be recommended when a physical exam, vital signs, or a more complete diagnostic interview is needed.
