Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Lisa is an amazing SLP. She had helped many young children eat new foods. She is open to helping colleagues better their craft.

Lisa is absolutely incredible! She worked so hard to help secure a spot for my daughter, and we are so grateful. She truly cared deeply. Our daughter made so much progress because of Lisa. I loved that Lisa was so accommodating with scheduling. Her advice was spot on as my daughter responded very well and she was gentle and nurturing. I highly recommend Lisa to anyone without any reservation. She has truly made. Significant difference in our lives. I wish we could continue with Lisa. She’s a rare therapist! Thank you so much for everything, Lisa!

Speech Angel!
There are really no words to express how truly gifted, patient and sweet Lisa is. I am emotional writing this, as she is hands down a speech angel who literally transformed my son’s speech. My husband and I joke maybe too much, as he definitely does not even sound like a 3 year old with his energetic personality shining through by his words and impressive vocabulary ! ;) My family and I are forever grateful to Lisa. She is the BEST around and any child would be lucky to have her as their “teacher” (as my son calls her <3).

Lisa worked with our son for over a year with feeding therapy. She was always professional, patient and kind. She has changed our lives for the better and my son is thriving and filled with energy now that he has the tools Lisa has given him to try new foods!

My son's speech has improved substantially thanks to Lisa and her strong professional abilities. I don't know what we would have done without her.

My son received speech services from Lisa for a year. She was extremely helpful and just what we needed. We saw big progress in my son. She knew how to get his attention and made the sessions very fun for him.

Ms. Lisa has been my son speech therapist for the past year. My son was diagnosed with autism at 18 months. We were devastated by this. However, my son is now talking so much and it’s all because of Ms. Lisa. She was so patient with us asking so many questions and dealing with my eon who would not look at us or even care if we were in the same room with him. When he said mama wuv you I almost died.. this was the happiest day of my life. Now he is telling me and my husband hi, bye, come and telling us what he wants. Ms. Lisa we love you. Thank you for everything Can’t wait to see what she gets him to say in the next few months. She’s a miracle worker
