Homestead and the Redland
Why Homestead and Redland patients choose care at home.
South Dade is nurseries, groves, farm stands and young families, a long drive up US-1 or the Turnpike to Kendall or Coral Gables. In-home visits bring the visit to the house. Postpartum recovery, back pain from farm and nursery work, and leaking are common reasons to book.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in Florida: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.
