Weight and mood care in Pompano Beach
Holistic is not a synonym for untested supplements.
What Wellness & Weight Management actually includes
Stress eating and emotional eating still get a differential (binge-eating disorder vs situational).
Functional weight testing is hypothesis-driven, not a catalog of 80 biomarkers.
Neighborhoods and ZIPs: 33060, 33062, 33064, 33069
South Florida heat, hurricane disruption, shift work, and multigenerational households show up in Pompano Beach presentations. Wellness & Weight Management intake asks about those stressors explicitly.
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Wellness & Weight Management visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
Pompano Beach sits in Broward County. County-level resources (crisis lines, hospital ERs, IOP programs) are discussed during Wellness & Weight Management when a higher level of care is safer than outpatient titration.
Functional testing was a $2,000 uninterpretable panel.
How Wellness & Weight Management is structured
Do not start a crash diet in active eating disorder.
Telehealth for follow-up; office for exams.
Stop dangerous 'wellness' products.
Follow up; depression relapse often precedes weight relapse.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence
Alcohol quantification.
A1c/lipids/TSH as indicated.
Informed consent for off-label metabolic uses.
Do not display before/after marketing in clinic.
Clinical FAQ
Telehealth?
Follow-up if you are in Florida. Exams as needed in Hollywood.
Affordable coaching URL?
Retained slug. This is not cheap coaching.
Exercise?
Dosed. Not a punishment.
Is this a weight-loss spa?
No. It is psychiatric and metabolic overlap care.
Who is the clinician?
Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC.
Can my antipsychotic stay?
Sometimes yes with monitoring; sometimes a switch is safer. That is a risk-benefit talk.
What insurance do you accept for Pompano Beach patients?
We accept most major insurance plans including Aetna, Cigna, Blue Cross, United, and more. Call (888) 307-2199 to verify your specific plan before your first visit.
Can you prescribe medication at the first appointment?
After a thorough psychiatric evaluation, Dr. Chatelier may recommend medication as part of your treatment plan. Initial evaluations typically last 60-90 minutes to ensure we understand your complete picture.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Pompano Beach patients who drive 28 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
ZIP 33060 is the lead postal code listed for Pompano Beach. Mail-order labs and pharmacy routing still use the patient's actual address, not this page's city token.
Refer out when the case is primarily endocrine or bariatric.
Stop dangerous 'wellness' products.

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.
