Book IV Hydration & Injectables
If IV Hydration & Injectables 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.
If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before IV Hydration & Injectables so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.
