I have Post Polio Syndrome and too much exercise is bad for me. Now I cannot even ride a regular bike on the level for more than a few minutes. The e-bikes have been great.
I have had 4 over the last 12 years or so. Good ones are not cheap. Get one with lithium ion batteries--last much longer, charge faster.
The front wheel drives I didn't like (found on most cheaper ones and DIY kits) There is not enough weight on the front drive wheel and can cause skidding if accelerating on gravel or even wet roads.
I currently have a Pedago the best so far. I can do 30 mile round trip (15 each way) with big hills at each end, on one charge.
If you have never ridden a bicycle before, they are not the thing to learn on without being very very careful.
