What is Speech-Language Pathologist?

Speech-language pathologists (SLPs), commonly referred to as speech therapists, can evaluate a patient’s speech, language, cognitive, communication, and swallowing skills in order to diagnose a speech disorder.

The SLP will gather a history of the child’s health, family, development, and school performance before the evaluation. Depending on the age and attention span of the child, the evaluation may be completed in just one session, or it could span over several sessions. The length of the session depends on the SLP’s plan and the child’s cooperation.

The SLP will likely evaluate the following categories:

• Understanding and use of different words
• Correct use of words incorrectly formed sentences
• Use of language for different purposes
• Pronunciation of speech sounds
• Physical ability to produce speech
• Voice quality
• Fluency or smooth flow of speech
• Fine motor skills
