Elana was born and raised in Chicago. She graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and a minor in Spanish Language. She received her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from the University of Wisconsin-Madison (Go Badgers!). Elana went on to complete a post-graduate residency focusing on orthopedics and spine physical therapy, also through UW-Madison.

I started going here a few weeks ago and have nothing but positive remarks for this physical therapy clinic! Elana is an extremely friendly, approachable, prompt, and talented PT. I really like her approach to treatment. Additionally, Lissette at the front desk is so welcoming and always ensures a comfortable environment for patients!K.B./
