Clinical FAQ
How close is the office if I need to convert?
About 0 minutes from Hollywood to 7603 Davie Road Extension.
Who is on camera?
Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC — not an anonymous coach.
Can you order labs?
Yes, to draw sites near 33019.
Is this the same as therapy?
No. This is medical psychiatric care. Therapy referrals remain separate.
Do you prescribe Adderall by video?
Only if the evaluation and PDMP support it, and policy allows. Not as a first-click product.
What if I travel to Georgia?
We cannot see you by telehealth while you are outside Florida.
How this differs from a 15-minute med check
A chatbot is not Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC.
Hybrid beats pure-video for labs and injections.
In-office is better for first-episode psychosis, complex exams, and some procedures.
Book Telehealth Psychiatry
If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before Telehealth Psychiatry so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.
Questions about insurance, labs, or whether Telehealth Psychiatry can be done by video: call (888) 307-2199 before you book so the visit type matches the clinical need.

Clinician: Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Last medical review: 2026-09-21.
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.
