Eugene

Why Eugene patients choose video.

Eugene calls itself TrackTown USA, and it earns the name: Hayward Field on campus, Pre's Trail in Alton Baker Park, the Ridgeline Trail and Spencer Butte for hill repeats, and bike paths along both banks of the Willamette. Saturday Market, the Whiteaker's breweries and a big university crowd shape the rest. Gray, wet winters push a lot of training indoors. Leaking while running, hip pain, postpartum return to running and pelvic pain are common reasons people here book.

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

Questions

Questions from Eugene

Do you work with runners returning after pregnancy?

Yes. Return-to-running plans after pregnancy are common in Eugene. Dr. Shalem watches running drills and impact work on video and progresses the program in steps, with follow-ups usually every one to two weeks.

Is a shared apartment near campus private enough for a visit?

Yes, with the door closed. Visits are one-on-one on a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform, and nothing is recorded. A phone or laptop and floor space for a mat are all that is needed.

How soon can I be seen?

Usually within a week. Early morning, evening and weekend video visits are available.
