Key Largo and Islamorada

Why Upper Keys patients choose video.

In the Upper Keys, a specialist appointment means the Stretch and an hour or more each way to the mainland. Video visits bring care to the house or the boat. Divers, anglers, retirees and Ocean Reef members are seen one-on-one for back and shoulder pain, leaking, prolapse and recovery after surgery.

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