Sebring, Avon Park and Lake Placid

Why Highlands County patients choose video.

Highlands County is the middle of the state: lakes, citrus and cattle, a large retired population and well over an hour to Orlando or Tampa. Video visits remove the drive. Leaking, urgency, prolapse, men's pelvic health and recovery after joint replacement are common reasons to book.

One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in Florida: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.
