Speech Therapy

Injury or illness that impacts your speech can be frustrating—it can limit your ability to communicate comfortably, but also point to issues with swallowing or even other medical conditions.

Speech and language therapists at Penn Medicine | Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Outpatient Therapy help our patients regain their speech, improve communication skills, and, if necessary, learn how to use aids to help them communicate. This may include exercises to strengthen muscles used in speech or swallowing, speech drills to help the patient speak clearly, and exercises to help the patient understand what others say.

Conditions Treated With Speech Therapy

  • Speech-Language Impairments
  • Stuttering/Dysfluency
  • Swallowing Disorders
  • Vocal Dysfunction or Paralysis
