Lifestyle Medicine Program

Overview

Lifestyle Medicine is an approach to healthcare that emphasizes the importance of healthy life choices and behaviors, in order to prevent, treat and manage diseases, such as cancer. It focuses on nutrition, physical activity, stress management, sleep, social relationships, and harmful substance use to promote overall health and wellbeing.

Our Lifestyle Medicine Program is committed to providing comprehensive, integrated care that goes beyond treating cancer and encompasses every aspect of our patients’ health. We understand that every part of life, including our lifestyle, impacts a patient’s journey with cancer, and we're here to help you navigate it all.

The comprehensive Lifestyle Medicine Program at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi is the first of its kind in the region, offering patients an integrated, personalized and transformative approach to cancer care.

Together, we can create a path toward healing that includes more than just medical treatment – a path paved with healthy lifestyle choices that enhance patient strength, resilience, and wellbeing.
