Cold Spring, Garrison and Beacon

Why Cold Spring, Garrison and Beacon patients choose video.

The river towns of the Hudson Highlands draw hikers, artists and families who left the city for more room. Breakneck Ridge and the Appalachian Trail are close, and so are the knee, hip and back problems that come with them; postpartum recovery is common among the young families moving in. Video visits suit a schedule with fewer trains.

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