Amelia Island and Fernandina Beach
Why Amelia Island patients choose video.
Amelia Island is a resort island with a real town: retirees, golfers, young families in Yulee and shrimp boats in Fernandina's harbor. Leaking, urgency, prolapse, postpartum recovery and back pain are common reasons to book. Video visits mean no drive into Jacksonville.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in Florida: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.
