Speech Therapy
The UHH speech language pathologists are highly trained in the evaluation and treatment of a wide range of disorders involving speech, articulation, language, cognition and swallowing. The speech therapists work one-on-one with patients and families to develop strategies to improve deficits in these areas with the goal of improving communication and function. They work with people of all ages with disorders such as developmental delay, autism or cerebral palsy or following stroke or those who’ve suffered from a stroke or head injury.
Athletic Training/Sports Medicine
Our athletic trainers work in the clinic, in the training room and on the field to evaluate and rehabilitate injured athletes. Their goal is to safely return athletes to competition as quickly as possible. They work closely with coaches to design injury prevention and strengthening programs and with area physicians to expedite further medical follow-up when needed. Our sports medicine team believes that proper conditioning and biomechanics will improve performance and reduce the likelihood of injury. That’s why we offer seasonal sports performance and conditioning classes, a golf clinic and throwing clinic for area athletes.
