Clinical FAQ
Do leftover affordable URLs mean cheap estrogen?
No.
Do you treat postpartum depression?
We evaluate and treat. Postpartum psychosis is an emergency.
Are you a gynecologist?
No. Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC is a PMHNP-BC providing hormone-informed psychiatric care.
Is brain fog always menopause?
No. Sleep, ADHD, depression, B12, and thyroid are on the list.
Can HRT replace my antidepressant?
Sometimes mood improves when sleep and vasomotor symptoms improve. Sometimes you still need a psychotropic. We do not promise a swap.
Can this be telehealth?
Counseling and some follow-up, if you are in Florida. Procedures and some exams cannot.
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.

Discuss mammography and cervical screening as primary-care tasks we will not skip mentioning.
Telehealth for counseling; office or GYN for procedures.
Protocol elements we do not skip
Postpartum: screen for psychosis.
Emergency precautions for chest pain/neuro deficits on estrogen.

Lactation: pump/dump or compatible med list.
