Park Slope and Prospect Heights
Why Park Slope and Prospect Heights patients choose video.
Park Slope may have more strollers per block than anywhere in New York, and the pelvic floor questions that come with them: leaking after the second baby, an abdominal gap that has not closed, pain with intercourse after birth, a return to running in Prospect Park. Visits happen from the living room, and the home program fits between feeds.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in New York: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.
