Spa IV vs medical IV
This page exists so IV is not a doorway product pretending to be psychiatry.
What IV Hydration & Injectables actually includes
NAD IV mental health claims exceed solid evidence; we say so.
Glutathione IV is not a trauma protocol.
How Pembroke Pines patients actually get here
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office IV Hydration & Injectables visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Pembroke Pines patients who drive 12 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
ER for emergencies.

What we rule in — and rule out

Next step
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.
After IV Hydration & Injectables is scheduled, complete intake forms once. Repeating the same history at every visit is what we are trying to avoid.

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.
