What our patients said

“I came to the Clinic hospital because I had to undergo a stomach operation. In the Clinic’s prehabilitation program, I walked on a treadmill, they taught me how to breathe and how to lift weights. They taught me how to eat well, and with the psychologist help me to keep my mind at ease. Now after the surgery I feel great, I can even eat everything, as if I had not been operated on.”

Total grastrectomy

“Thank you for the kind treatment, recommendations, persistence and professionalism of the entire PREHAB team. I was very surprised by the fact that at 86-year-old, with more than 20 years taking medication for the heart, I could do so much exercise (stationary bike, strength training, stretching, etc.) without having any discomfort. It’s been a year since the surgery and I feel perfectly fine. I still walk at least 5,000 steps as recommended.”

Joan, 86 años
Hemicolectomy

“The prehabilitation program has worked very well for me; I was looked after by a multidisciplinary team lead by an anaesthesiologist which also included a physiotherapist, a registered dietician and a psychologist. They helped me a lot during the program as I started with very low morale and they cheered me up to get to surgery full of energy to face it.”

Miguel, 82 años
Hemicolectomy

“We would like to express our gratitude and appreciation to the Prehabilitation Team at Hospital Clinic. It has been enormously beneficial and helpful. It has given us resources to face our fears, worries and anxieties before surgery, while giving us the confidence that with training, our body will be better prepared to face the surgery and the recovery. We want to highlight the professionalism, kindness and empathy of all the professionals who helped us and monitored us.

All those relatives, friends and health professionals to whom we have told about this program have been amazed and are really grateful to this kind of work that is being done at the Hospital Clinic.”
