Cancer Prehabilitation
The Prehabilitation Program is designed to improve your well-being prior to surgery, increasing your chances for better recovery and treatment response.
Call for more information or to schedule an appointment.
Cancer treatment can cause both physical and emotional weakness, making recovery from surgery much more difficult. UC Health is committed to transforming care for gastrointestinal cancer patients by providing a plan that focuses on the whole person. Patients who participate in prehabilitation experience a shorter intensive care unit (ICU) stay, earlier discharge, shorter time to adjuvant chemo and have an overall increase in quality of life.
