🌟 Welcome Sofie to the Centre PT team who is treating in our Oak Park clinic! 🌟
Sofie, an Oak Park native and highly trained physical therapist specializing in orthopaedic and performing arts rehabilitation.
Sofie earned her DPT from Northwestern, completed an orthopaedic residency with Johns Hopkins/George Washington University, and is a Board-Certified Orthopaedic Clinical Specialist. She also completed a Performing Arts PT Fellowship at Johns Hopkins, where she helped develop wellness programs for young artists and contributed to dance-related research.
Growing up in Oak Park, Sofie danced at the Academy of Movement and Music, figure skated at Ridgeland Commons and performed in OPRF musicals—making her passion for supporting adolescent performers come full circle.
Outside the clinic, she loves weightlifting, dancing, crafting, reading, and spending time with her two beagles.
We are excited for our patients to meet Sofie! 💙✨
