Oswego and Fulton

Why Oswego and Fulton patients choose video.

Oswego County takes lake-effect snow off Lake Ontario by the foot, and the drive to Syracuse can turn an appointment into a day. SUNY Oswego staff, plant and manufacturing workers, Salmon River anglers and retirees are seen one-on-one by video.

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