ZIP 33019 is the lead postal code listed for Hollywood. Mail-order labs and pharmacy routing still use the patient's actual address, not this page's city token.

Next step
If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before Massage Therapy so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.
If Massage Therapy is the right next step, schedule a 60–90 minute intake with Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC. Same-week telehealth follow-ups are used after the diagnostic visit when clinically appropriate.
