Michael Wong D.Ch, B.Kin is a Registered Chiropodist at Waterloo Foot Clinic Uptown.
Born and raised in Toronto, Michael possesses a deep appreciation for the healthcare field,
notably from the care he received as a competitive swimmer and rugby player. Striving to help
others, he would pursue further education at the University of Toronto, graduating with a degree
in Kinesiology. Throughout his undergraduate years, Michael was able to balance academics
with athletics, competing for the Varsity Blues Men’s Rugby team. At the same time, he was
fortunate to work in a clinical placement opportunity alongside sport physicians and other
specialists at the esteemed David L. Macintosh Sport Medicine Clinic. It was here where
Michael was inspired by one of his mentor’s mottos - “you do not have to be a world-class
athlete to receive world-class care”. This motivated him to strive for the best care possible to
everyone and anyone.
Following his undergraduate degree, Michael then pursued advanced training at the Michener
Institute for Applied Health Sciences, expanding his scope of knowledge to include clinical
pharmacology, podiatric medicine and soft tissue surgery. He would apply and hone his
chiropody skills working in inpatient care units and complex care teams at Toronto Grace and
Toronto Rehabilitation Hospitals as well as the Waterloo Foot Clinic, where Michael would
ultimately find his love for the tri-city region.
Michael is grateful for the warm welcome from the tri-city community, and is thrilled to serve
people from all walks of life in order to get them back on their feet again.
When not providing services at the uptown location, Michael could be found hiking trails and
birdwatching, portaging over beaver dams at Algonquin Park, or looking for the perfect sunset
alongside his fiancee.
