Vero Beach
Why Vero Beach patients choose video.
Vero Beach is barrier-island clubs, citrus groves on the mainland and a large population of retirees and seasonal residents. Leaking, urgency, prolapse and recovery after hip or knee replacement are common reasons to book, and men are seen after prostate surgery. Video visits mean no drive to Melbourne or West Palm.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in Florida: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.
