Speech therapy allows individuals who may be struggling with communication, cognition, or even the physical ability to swallow. Through careful instruction and exercise from a certified in-home Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP), people from all ages can strengthen and restore essential communication and eating abilities to live life independently and with confidence.
At The Doctor’s Choice in Los Angeles, our skilled and compassionate speech therapists work closely with patients of all ages, from young children to elderly adults, in the comfort of home. We believe in taking a collaborative approach to ensure overall, sustained improvement, and invite the patient’s family to become involved in the learning and training process.
