Adult Services:

Adult Dysphagia Swallowing difficulties, also known as dysphagia, can hugely impact on quality of life and we believe it isn't something that needs to be suffered alone. We specialise in adult dysphagia with a particular interest in progressive neurological conditions and the elderly. It is our goal here at Swallow & Speech Therapy Consultants Ltd to help you reach your swallowing goals at any stage of life or your condition by providing quality assessment, therapy/management, and education/training. Adult Communication Swallow & Speech Therapy Consultants Ltd strives to breakdown communication barriers with the aim to increase hope and confidence and reduce frustration and disappointment.Some of the communication difficulties we can assist with, but are not limited to, are aphasiaand apraxia of speech (usually acquired after a stroke), dysarthria (usually secondary to a neurological condition, post head and neck surgery, or general ageing), cognitive communication difficulties (typically acquired following a traumatic brain injury), and stuttering/fluency disorders.

Children Services:

Cleft Lip & Palate Swallow & Speech Therapy Consultants are proud to be able to provide specialist services for cleft lip and palate across ages including feeding and speech difficulties. Children & Adolescents We know that it can be worrying when your child has a speech or language difficulty/delay and that wait-lists in the public system can be long. We provide services to families and children for speech and language difficulties or delays as well as stuttering/fluency disorders.
