Speech Therapy

Our experienced speech therapists are specially trained to diagnose and treat of a variety of speech, voice and language disorders. If you or a loved one stutters or has fluency, rhythm or speech-quality problems, we can help with that, too.

Speech disorders can have a number of causes, such as:

  • Hearing loss
  • Stroke
  • Cerebral palsy
  • Mental disability
  • Traumatic brain injury

Because speech disorders are often related to neurological, psychological and physical conditions, your care team may include a primary care physician, neurologist and psychiatrist in addition to a speech therapist. Each member of the team plays a vital role in supporting and counseling patients and their families on how to cope with the many challenges that often come with speech disorders.

If you have questions, please call the Wellmont Nurse Connection at 1-877-230-NURSE.
