Identifying the Right Expert for Exercise Regimen Development for Cancer Patients

Hi Peter and Team! I'm a cancer patient advocate and educator, and caregiver to my husband and mother-in-law, both diagnosed with colorectal cancer. I'm trying to guide cancer patients in the right direction for all the various needs they'll have from diagnosis through survivorship (nutrition, mental health, sexual health, etc.), and I've hit a stumbling block with exercise guidance. What type of professionals, certifications, education, etc. should patients be seeking for expert guidance on exercise? Is it a personal trainer? A physical therapist? A sports medicine specialist? Certification from a specific organization?Asking a patient to rely primarily on their oncologist for this topic doesn't seem sufficient to me. I appreciate your help and expertise!
