Speech Therapy
Logan Health offers both adult and pediatric speech-language pathology or speech therapy. Speech problems often occur because a person has difficulty producing sounds due to the incorrect movement of the muscles in the lips, tongue, and mouth. Our skilled speech-language pathologists develop individualized treatment plans for our patients, guiding them through communication techniques, and strategies for coping with speech/language barriers.
