What we treat
Speech after a cleft palate repair
A repaired cleft palate often still needs speech therapy, because the sound patterns learned before surgery do not change on their own.
We work with your surgical team
Therapy fits around the hospital plan, not against it.
Air through the nose
Some sounds escape through the nose after repair. That pattern has its own therapy.
Long term, in stages
We expect several blocks of therapy across childhood, not one.
