Important information for referring professionals.
By referring patients to Toronto Rehab, you join hundreds of other family physicians and cardiac specialists in the GTA who send nearly 1,600 patients our way each year. Since 1968 when the program started, over 30,000 people have graduated. Some have lost 20 pounds. Others have run marathons. Nearly all have said it gave them a new lease on life.
Designed for cardiac rehabilitation, our facility is the best in the city with:
- Two 200-metre walk/jog tracks
- A gymnasium for warm-up, stretching and resistance training classes
- A 120-seat lecture theatre
- Two human performance labs to complete cardiopulmonary exercise assessments
We trust that the patients you refer will see the benefits of cardiac rehab in terms of increased fitness levels, decreased risk factors, and improved quality of life. In addition to exercise and education, we have introduced the services of a dietitian to help patients reduce nutrition-related heart hazards and to promote heart healthy eating. Our psychology service provides patients with one to one counselling and group sessions to help patients adjust to life changes after a hearth attack.
