Speaking, hearing and understanding are basic to human communication.
Difficulty in one or more of these areas can interfere with a person's
ability to communicate. Children with problems in speaking, hearing
or understanding often experience problems in social situations
and in school. Adults unable to communicate may find it difficult
to sustain employment and maintain social relationships.
At our state-of-the art Downtown Brooklyn Speech-Language-Hearing
Clinic we provide evaluation and treatment for people of all
ages with speech-language, swallowing and/or hearing problems.
