Follow-up if you are in Florida. Exams as needed in Hollywood.
Self-esteem focus only?

How far is the office?
0 minutes from Hollywood.
Sleep?

Schedule with Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC
Start with one thorough Wellness & Weight Management 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 Wellness & Weight Management so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.
