As a pediatric patient, your child will receive customized therapy at our new off-campus location designed exclusively for children. The facility houses our pediatric physical, occupational, and speech therapies for your convenience in the event that more than one kind of therapy is required. Your child’s speech language pathologist will collaborate with you, so that we all work together through the process.
