“Melissa and her team built Sora Therapy to be the leading provider in the Minneapolis pediatric rehab space. Ivy Rehab for Kids is stronger today by partnering with Melissa Lonsky and Sora,” said Troy Bage, CEO of Ivy Rehab for Kids. “Her dedicated team has proven to be successful at accomplishing our primary goal: serving children with high-quality care. As we expand our footprint to provide care in underserved areas, we are pleased to have such high-caliber professionals join us in our combined mission.”

Lonsky underscores her commitment to high-quality care as a graduate of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association’s Leadership in Healthcare program. Additionally, she has served as a member of the Minnesota Speech-Language-Hearing Association Executive Council for seven years, including a term as president.
