Bakersfield

Why Bakersfield patients choose video.

Bakersfield is oil, agriculture and young families, with Los Angeles a mountain pass away. Pregnancy and postpartum care, back pain from physical work and leaking are common reasons to book. Video visits fit around shifts.

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