Sisters, Black Butte Ranch and Camp Sherman
Why Sisters Country patients choose video.
Sisters is small, scenic and seasonal: ponderosa pine and the Three Sisters on the skyline, the outdoor quilt show in July and the folk festival in September, horses and ranch land toward Tumalo, golf and second homes at Black Butte Ranch, fly fishing at Camp Sherman. Many residents are retirees or part-time locals who split the year. Bend is about 20 miles away, but winter driving can make it feel farther. Prolapse, bladder urgency, hip pain and menopause changes are common reasons people here book.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in Oregon: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.

Questions
Questions from Sisters, Black Butte Ranch and Camp Sherman
Can part-time residents keep visits going between Sisters and another home?
Only while in Oregon. The patient has to be physically in the state at the time of each visit, so sessions can happen from Black Butte Ranch or a home in Portland, but not from out of state.
Is menopause care something retirees in Sisters book for?
Yes. Urgency, leaking, discomfort and pain with intercourse around menopause are common reasons to book. Dr. Shalem builds a home program, and medical questions about hormones stay with the patient's own doctor.
How soon can I be seen?
Usually within a week. Early morning, evening and weekend video visits are available.
