Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation

Introduction

Expert care. At life-saving speed.

The Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at MMHRC works towards restoring the functioning of the body, reducing the impact of dysfunction, disability and pain which might have been caused through trauma and disease.‘The Patient Comes First’ is the department’s philosophy. The Physiotherapy department is one of the largest in its class and works across all sub-specialties. It is also equipped with all latest equipments.

We have a qualified and highly experienced team of physiotherapists providing OPD services (direct and referral) and IPD services (wards and intensive care units) with treatment procedures conforming to exact international standards.

The core idea at the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation is to ensure that rehabilitation is achieved within the shortest period possible, making life near normal for the patient at the earliest. The physiotherapists provide a wide range of therapies after examination, tailored to suit individual needs. The department strives to improve each patient’s mobility and health, and to reduce the risk of injuries.
