What is Speech Therapy?
Some children find it hard to communicate either verbally or non-verbally and speech therapy can help overcome these barriers. Our therapists provide assessment and treatment for speech, language and feeding disorders to children diagnosed with a variety of developmental, neurological, cranio-facial, and genetic disorders. MedCare's Speech Therapy services can help your child improve their communication and oral motor issues.
How can Speech Therapy benefit my child?
MedCare's Speech Therapists will help address your child's difficulties with communication, processing conversations and their ability to eat. Some examples of these difficulties include stuttering, inappropriate pronunciation and articulation of words, inability to put words together to have a conversation, and limited vocabulary. Speech Therapy can help with oral feeding concerns, including eating and the ability to swallow, with or without choking.
