Speech-language Pathology

Sometimes referred to as speech therapy, speech-language pathology addresses the speech, language, cognitive-communication and swallowing skills.

Speech-language pathologists help treat:

• Articulation
• Stuttering
• Repetitions
• Prolonged sounds and syllables
• Pitch and volume problems
• Voice quality

Lake Health speech-language pathologists are specially trained in Deep Pharyngeal Neuromuscular Stimulation (DPNS), a technique proven to be highly effective for certain types of swallowing disorders.

Speech-language pathology is available at Lake West Medical Center in Willoughby and TriPoint Medical Center in Concord.
