Why Kauai's North Shore patients choose video.
From Hanalei, Lihue is an hour away when the road cooperates. Video visits keep care consistent through weather closures and traffic, and the program is built around ocean and trail life.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in Hawaii: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.
