Our cardiac rehabilitation team includes exercise physiologists and respiratory therapists specially trained in cardiovascular and pulmonary care.

Exercise physiologists have a bachelor's degree in kinesiology, exercise science, exercise physiology or related fields. They assess physical fitness and develop individualized exercise programs while monitoring each patient’s response to activity. They also help patients better understand cardiovascular risk factors, treatment plans and healthy lifestyle habits.

Respiratory Therapists are trained in respiratory care and specialize in the treatment and management of chronic lung disease. They provide education and support related to breathing conditions, medications, treatments and risk-factor reduction.
