Featured Image for Speech therapy department page stock

As medical speech-language pathologists, we have specialized training and expertise in evaluating and treating infants, children, and adolescents with speech, language, voice, fluency, and oral feeding/swallowing disorders. Early speech-language, and oral feeding intervention can help your child reach their full potential and be as independent as possible in school, the family, and the community.
