    EMERSON, NJ, February 09, 2023 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Cynthia J. Shechter, CLT-UE, CORE, IORS, CIMT, OTR/L, MA has participated in The Star Treatment, a prestigious video series hosted by renowned lawyer and television personality, Star Jones. This premier video series is extremely limited — Marquis Who's Who qualifies 500 listees on an annual basis for this elite service. Backed by a storied career in media that spans more than two decades, Star works closely with Marquis listees to assist with networking goals and commemorative efforts that can be shared with a worldwide audience.

Ms. Shechter is a highly dedicated and experienced occupational therapist who has dedicated her career to treating patients as individuals, not just conditions. With decades of experience in the health care system, she has a passion for helping patients recover and reclaim their lives.

Ms. Shechter's journey to becoming an occupational therapist began in an unexpected way. While she had always planned on pursuing a career in social work, she was introduced to occupational therapy by her parents after they met an occupational therapist on a vacation. This introduction led Ms. Shechter to volunteer at Tompkins Community Hospital in Ithaca, New York, where she worked as an OT assistant in the outpatient program. This experience was a turning point in Ms. Shechter's life and inspired her to pursue a career in occupational therapy.

Ms. Shechter believes that what sets occupational therapy apart from other forms of rehabilitation is the focus on functional tasks and helping patients become independent and self-sufficient. According to Ms. Shechter, this is what allows patients to have their confidence restored and live full, fulfilling lives.

One of Ms. Shechter's personal philosophies is to treat each patient as an individual, rather than just a condition. She recognizes that all patients have unique needs and challenges and strives to provide personalized, patient-centered care. This philosophy is particularly evident in Ms. Shechter's focus on rehabilitation for breast cancer survivors.

Breast cancer recovery can present unique challenges, including the risk of lymphedema, a swelling condition caused by the removal of lymph nodes. Many patients are taught to live with this dysfunction, but Ms. Shechter believes that this is not the only option. She works with patients to identify and address the specific challenges they are facing, and helps them integrate functional tasks and daily activities into their lives in a way that works for them.

Ms. Shechter's approach to patient care involves a holistic, comprehensive approach to rehabilitation. This means addressing not just the physical challenges of recovery, but also the emotional and psychological impact of a cancer diagnosis and treatment. She recognizes that patients are individuals with unique needs and challenges, and she works with each patient to develop a care plan that addresses their specific needs.

In her current role as a comprehensive oncology rehabilitation expert, Ms. Shechter has been instrumental in developing new programs and services to help cancer patients recover and reclaim their lives. Her passion for patient-centered care and her commitment to providing the highest quality rehabilitation services have made her a sought-after expert in the field of oncology rehabilitation.

Ms. Shechter's dedication to her patients has earned her numerous awards and recognition, including the Patient Advocacy award from the Lymphatic Education & Research Network. She is also a sought-after speaker and educator, having given numerous presentations and workshops on oncology rehabilitation at local, national, and international conferences.

Ms. Shechter's commitment to helping cancer patients is an inspiration to her colleagues and patients alike. Her passion for helping others and her commitment to providing the highest quality rehabilitation services have made her a leader in the field of oncology rehabilitation.

If you or someone you love has been affected by cancer, we invite you to schedule a consultation with Ms. Shechter to learn more about the comprehensive rehabilitation services she provides. With her expertise, compassionate care, and dedication to helping patients reclaim their lives, Ms. Shechter is truly a worthy recipient of the Star Treatment.
