Coto de Caza, Ladera Ranch and Rancho Santa Margarita

Why South Orange County patients choose video.

South Orange County's master-planned communities are full of young families and busy calendars, and the drive to a specialist on the 5 or the toll roads eats an afternoon. Pregnancy, postpartum recovery, leaking with exercise and back pain from carrying children are common reasons to book.

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