Speech Therapy

Davies Institute of Speech & Hearing “DISH” was founded to provide families with a unique, supportive environment for their child’s language and developmental needs. Our team of experts, teachers, and speech therapists are trained to diagnose and treat each individual child while also working directly with parents. 

Our Speech language pathologists treat receptive and expressive language disorders in the pediatric population. Speech language pathologists can also evaluate and treat oral motor concerns (chewing and swallowing), voice, fluency, articulation, and social language skills.
