physical rehabilitation specialist


Explanation:
"Fisiatra" is defined as "medico, specialista in fisiatria".
www.demauroparavia.it/44227
"Fisiatria" is defined as "settore della medicina che si occupa dei metodi di riabilitazione motoria attraverso lo studio degli effetti che taluni mezzi fisici hanno sull'organismo umano.
www.demauroparavia.it/44228

I have used the search engine Google and have found out that the term "physical rehabilitation specialist' is mentioned in 84 English websites. Here is an example of its usage:
"Each patient is assigned a team of physical rehabilitation specialist who will work to meet the patient's individual needs..."
