Lauderhill FAQs for Wellness & Weight Management
Crisis / medical instability?
ER. Especially with restriction and electrolyte risk.
Hormone weight loss?
Labs if indicated. Hormones are not a fat-melting SKU.
Insurance?
Verify. Metabolic meds and visits have different coverage rules.
Telehealth?
Follow-up if you are in Florida. Exams as needed in Hollywood.
Do you prescribe GLP-1s?
When medically appropriate and after eating-disorder screening. Not as a cosmetic product.
Affordable coaching URL?
Retained slug. This is not cheap coaching.
Does Dr. Chatelier understand Caribbean cultural views on mental health?
Yes. Dr. Chatelier is Haitian-American and deeply understands the cultural perspectives on mental health common in Caribbean communities. She provides respectful, culturally aware psychiatric care.

Book Wellness & Weight Management
Crisis now is 988 or the ER — not the booking form. For non-urgent Wellness & Weight Management, use (888) 307-2199 during weekday hours.
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.
