Gresham, Troutdale and Sandy

Why Gresham-area patients choose video.

Gresham is where the MAX Blue Line ends and the Springwater Corridor heads out toward Boring; Troutdale is the doorway to the Historic Columbia River Highway and the Gorge waterfalls; Sandy is the gateway town on the road up to Mount Hood. Residents include shift workers, young families looking for more house for the money, and hikers and skiers who live east on purpose. Plenty cross the river daily for work. Postpartum recovery, leaking with lifting, knee pain and bladder urgency are common reasons people here book.

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

Questions

Questions from Gresham, Troutdale and Sandy

Can I take a visit from work across the river in Washington?

No. Each visit has to happen while the patient is physically in Oregon. A visit from home in Gresham, Troutdale or Sandy before or after the commute works well.

Do you treat knee pain from hiking the Gorge trails?

Yes. Knee, hip and ankle problems from hiking are part of the orthopedic side of the practice, including rehabilitation after surgery once the surgeon clears outpatient physical therapy.

How soon can I be seen?

Usually within a week. Early morning, evening and weekend video visits are available.
