Dr. Amar Rewari Discusses the Power of Prehabilitation on NBC News

Dr. Amar Rewari, Chief of Radiation Oncology at Luminis Health, recently appeared on NBC News to discuss the growing impact of "prehabilitation" in cancer care. In the first of a two-part segment, he explored how a proactive approach—focusing on exercise, nutrition, and stress management before surgery or chemotherapy—helps patients begin their cancer journey stronger.

Rather than waiting for recovery to start after treatment, prehabilitation empowers patients to build strength and resilience from day one. During the interview, Dr. Rewari highlighted how this approach is transforming patient outcomes, noting that recent studies show over a 50% reduction in post-surgical complications, shorter hospital stays, and faster overall recoveries for patients who complete a prehab program.
