- ChemotherapyI was diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer in July 2008. I began my treatment at Scarborough Physical Therapy shortly after my surgeries and during my radiation and chemotherapy regimens that left me nauseous and weak both physically and emotionally. My therapists treated my symptoms with great skill, ingenuity, empathy and compassion, and I credit them with advancing my recovery and my return to health and wholeness. I will be forever grateful to June Tait and her amazing team of practitioners, and I recommend Scarborough Physical Therapy whole-heartedly to anyone who has suffered an injury or illness.
