Boca Raton

Why Boca Raton patients choose video.

Boca Raton is two communities at once: young families and a large retired population, many of them part-year residents. Pregnancy and postpartum care on one side; leaking, urgency, prolapse and recovery after hip or knee replacement on the other. Visits come to the house, with no drive down Glades Road.

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