“ The Cancer Rehabilitation Program at Touro helped me through my recurrence of breast cancer and to return to my life and doing the things I love.”

The Cancer Rehabilitation Program at Touro helped me through my recurrence of breast cancer and to return to my life and doing the things I love. Post-surgery, the strengthening and balance exercises I have worked on with the therapists have helped me return to doing daily activities I did before surgery, like walking, cooking and laundry. The physical therapists were very knowledgeable and helpful. The program helped me tremendously and I think other cancer patients could benefit from it as well. The program helps patients feel more prepared and positive about the recovery process and returning to everyday activities and independence.
