Growing up, Dr. Liza Egbogah was an often-injured track-and-field athlete with a desire to heal people’s ailments—including her own knee pain and plantar fasciitis. Her interests led her to study health sciences at the University of Alberta and then the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto. In 2017, by then a chiropractor and osteopath, Egbogah launched Dr. Liza Shoes, a collection of orthopedic high heels meant to correct posture and alleviate joint pain. Since launching, her business has grown to include loafers, sneakers and shoulder bags, and have been worn by many different types of professionals who want to look and feel good at work, including celebrities like Kate Winslet and Priyanka Chopra.
