About Us > History
BioPed was founded in 1981 as a single footcare Clinic in Guelph, Ontario. Specializing in non-surgical treatment of foot
problems and disorders, the small start-up Clinic soon found itself accepting referrals from orthopaedic surgeons based in Kitchener,
Brantford and Mississauga, Ontario.
As services expanded in the early '80's, the need for continuing education among Physicians and consumers grew and, correspondingly, a series of education seminars was developed for Ontario Family Physicians - which in turn further increased awareness of BioPed services.
The positive response from patients and Physicians led to expansion and eventual franchising of the BioPed brand. Today, BioPed has grown to more than 60 full-service and satellite Clinics throughout British Columbia, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Ontario. High quality patient care and medical education remain the pillars of BioPed’s success.
