My PT was on staff at the hospital. She came to see me on the second day after my surgery. I think my doctor sent her. Your doctor's don't sound very helpful! Maybe you could call the hospital where your husband had his treatments. Their staff PT should be used to seeing patients who've undergone cancer treatments.
