Schedule with Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC
Crisis now is 988 or the ER — not the booking form. For non-urgent Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing, use (888) 307-2199 during weekday hours.
If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.
