Services we provide
If you are staying in hospital as an inpatient, a speech and language therapist may see you. They will check what kind of problems you have and work with you, your family and the team caring for you. The help you get will depend on your condition and your recovery goals.
We also run an outpatient voice clinic. You will need a referral from the ear, nose and throat (ENT) team. The support you get will depend on your needs and your care plan.
