Referral information
Referrals are sent electronically via the Cosmic medical record system to Rehabilitation Medicine. The referral indicates whether the question is for inpatient or outpatient care.
Our services
We offer specialised rehabilitation primarily to people of working age. Our main patient groups are people with:
- brain injury
- neurological disease
- spinal cord injury
We receive patients at the rehabilitation medicine clinic located at Genetikvägen 4 and at our ward at Uppsala University Hospital.
Teamwork with common goals and cross-border cooperation form the basis of the services. Our rehabilitation programmes are designed to help our patients achieve the highest possible level of functioning, independence and life satisfaction.

Sexological perspective on health, disease and treatment choices
Since spring 2021, Rehabilitation Medicine at Uppsala University Hospital has offered one to two courses per academic year in basic sexual medicine for doctors and other healthcare professionals.
Sexual abuse and sexual problems are common in healthcare, although they are often not discussed. These problems are particularly common in people with neurological disease, or other neurogenic conditions (such as diabetic neuropathy) and in those who have undergone cancer treatment.
