The Problem
1 out of 8 of your patients need Speech Therapy*.
On average, ~2 of your patients every day needs to be referred to speech evaluation and therapy.
But, when you recommend it, 84% of parents don't follow through to start therapy for their child*.
Why? Because finding a speech clinic is time consuming, takes 3-4 weeks to get started and it is very expensive ($110-$150 per session).
You, their pediatrician have little visibility into their speech progress because the clinic doesn't share the child's progress with you.
Get a reliable speech therapy provider that can report back to you the progress of your patients.

Is online speech therapy just as good as traditional face to face speech therapy?Online speech therapy has been proven effective by over 40 academic studies and, in some cases, even better than in-person treatment. For example, people with anxiety or sensory issues are oftentimes more relaxed and focused with online instruction provided in the comfort of their own home. It may be more appropriate for your family as scheduling is easier sessions are available at more convenient times. This decreases the frequency of missed sessions and progress is made faster. Speech therapy for seniors who might have a difficult time getting to sessions also provides access to care they wouldn't otherwise get. Online speech therapy also allows those with difficulty accessing quality services in their community to have a speech therapist available to them at home. Online speech therapy is also great for families that don't want to wait for a speech therapist to become available. At Better Speech we have a Parent Coaching program where parents learn to use strategies to improve their child's communication while working with a speech therapist online.
