You can live better with cancer. Contact a University of Miami Health System physiatrist (physical medicine and rehabilitation doctor) to start being the strongest, and healthiest, you can be.

Who is a Candidate?

We see patients with a current or past cancer diagnosis, either during treatment or years after. If you’re experiencing pain, loss of function, emotional stress, loss of feeling, and/or loss of ability to move due to cancer or treatment, we can help you.
