Speech Language Pathology

Our speech language pathologist develops specialized treatment and rehabilitation programs that address the unique needs of all age groups—from infants to seniors. Whether a patient's needs are the result of an injury or existing at the time of birth, the staff evaluates and prescribes the appropriate treatment and rehabilitation services to enhance the patient's abilities.

Following a physician referral, our speech language pathologist evaluates the current abilities of the patient and develops the treatment program that will broaden and maximize the patient's normal activities. Referring physicians remain an integral part of treatment and re-evaluation.
