Cancer Survivorship Rehabilitation
We are dedicated to helping cancer survivors function at the highest level possible. Cancer and its treatment can be toxic and often causes pain, fatigue and disability for survivors. Through our Cancer Survivorship Training and Rehabilitation Program, our goal is to minimize these effects and to encourage cancer survivors to have the best possible quality of life.
The Cancer Rehabilitation program offers patients coordinated cancer rehabilitation supported by a team of Certified clinicians and providers.
