Julie Soderberg graduated with a master's degree in physical therapy from Mount St. Mary's College in 1999 with the intention of pursuing a sports medicine career to build upon her bachelor's degree in athletic training. However, the invitation to reinstate the lymphedema program at Providence Little Company of Mary Medical Center Torrance resulted in a change in her career path that she embraced. Julie completed her lymphedema training with Guenter Klose, of Klose-Norton Training and Consulting, in 2000 and has since been specializing in lymphedema, focusing on providing comprehensive care for cancer and primary lymphedema patients who not only have lymphedema but orthopedic complications as well. She is the lymphedema program coordinator at Providence Outpatient Rehabilitation in Torrance, California, and a consulting lymphedema specialist for Dr. Jay Granzow, who established the Granzow Lymphedema & Lipedema Center located in Jacksonville, Florida.
