Palos Verdes Peninsula
Why Palos Verdes Peninsula patients choose video.
The Peninsula is quiet, hilly and a long drive from most specialists. Many patients here are in midlife and beyond: menopause-related pelvic changes, leaking that has been tolerated for years, recovery after prostate or pelvic surgery, back and hip pain on the trails. Video visits bring a specialist to the house.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in California: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.
