Speech, Language and Learning

The Speech, Language and Learning Clinic at Texas Children's provides evaluation, management and consultation for infants, children, adolescents and adults who have problems with communication, learning, feeding and swallowing.

Our speech-language pathologists collaborate with key Texas Children's Hospital departments and clinics, including Radiology, the Cleft Lip and Palate Clinic, the Craniofacial Anomalies Clinic, the Meyer Center for Developmental Pediatrics, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, the Hearing Center and Texas Children's Health Centers.

Referrals to Speech, Language and Learning are accepted from schools, physicians, other professionals and families. A physician referral is required for all hospitalized patients as well as for people with voice disorders and swallowing disorders.

Cognitive assessments can be performed by a certified educational diagnostician. Our clinic has several bilingual providers who speak both English and Spanish.
