Christine understands that her patients have a wealth of information on their own condition. She sees first job as that of a good active listener and to help her patients to discover important information about their condition. It is this process that reveals the diagnosis and informs the best treatment strategies. Christine also understands how confusion, fear and anxiety can impact her patients and she combats these aspects of the condition with very clear communication and reassurance. She knows that when a patient fully understands their condition and has a focused treatment plan they are empowered to begin the recovery process.

Christine was born in Hong Kong but moved to Canada when she was just a few months old when her family settled in the Markham area. She has been a dancer her whole life with a specific love of Chinese dance because of the freedom and outlet of expression it provides. Christine is also a major foodie with the goal of visiting all of the food capitals of the world. If you need a good laugh, Christine can help, she is a ‘dad joke’ aficionado!

What Christine's patients say...

Christine worked with me to help me recover from a knee injury. She was very professional, analytical and thorough; a good listener with a warm and caring composure. Her exercises prescribed were effective in helping me to regain my knee strength & stance. With her help, I am now back to all my regular routine with no pain issue. I highly recommend Christine and Cornerstone.

What Christine's patients say...

I had a very positive experience at Cornerstone Physiotherapy with Christine. She was very thorough and attentive when doing my initial assessment and follow up treatments. She really tried to get at the root of the problems. She had some good advice and seemed genuinely invested in my recovery.  I would not hesitate to recommend Christine (I already have). Thanks for a great experience Christine!

What Christine's patients say...

Christine has been fundamental to my healing journey and has helped me build strength after my recent knee injury. She has been informative on the process and incredibly knowledgeable. She is attentive and also provides great feedback with the types of excercises I should be working on. Highly recommend the Markham location! It is convenient and good location!
