About Sonia

As a Canadian Certified Pedorthist practicing since 2010, Sonia is determined to help people
get back on their feet. Having foot or lower limb pain can be a debilitating and frustrating injury
effecting both work and quality of life. With over 10 years working in Pedorthic and
rehabilitation clinics across Ontario, Sonia has used her knowledge and experience to treat
hundreds of satisfied patients of all ages. She is committed to providing the best and most
comprehensive care for her patients.
Sonia grew up in the foot care and footwear industry since she was a little girl. Her father and
grandfather were both shoemakers & designers of footwear lines. She has fond memories as a
child working with leathers and footwear and thoroughly understands lower limb biomechanics.
Growing up, her family had an Orthopedic Footwear Centre in Markham that assisted clients all
across Ontario. Because they specialized in fitting difficult and complicated cases, they had
patients coming from clinics all across the province that were looking for specialized care. They
succeeded in helping thousands of people to achieve optimum mobility.
In her spare time Sonia loves swimming, lots of hiking through nature, daily exercise and
working out at the gym.
