"The results were excellent and my mind was put at ease"

About: Lanarkshire Community Services / Adult Speech and Language Therapy

(as a parent/guardian),

My 3 year old had to have an assessment on his speech after a recommendation by his nursery. I was nervous when we first arrived at Condorrat Health Centre but Leigh made us feel very relaxed from the start.

My son went through his assessment which Leigh guided him through in a friendly manner. My son really enjoyed the toys Leigh had put out for him and actually conversed with her more than I expected he would. At the end of the assessment the results were excellent and my mind was put at ease.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write about your experience working with Leigh. We know that attending any appointment can often be worrying for parents and I am glad that Leigh was able to make the appointment relaxed for yourself and enjoyable for your little boy.

Our therapists have a lot of experience working with young children and parents are often surprised how at ease children can be in our sessions. We try to make sessions fun and interesting for children so that they are able to communicate to the best of their ability.

I know Leigh will be delighted to hear your feedback and I am pleased that we were able to put your mind at ease.

If you would like to keep in touch with our team please follow us on twitter: @sltnorth or facebook: speech and language therapy north Lanarkshire

Regards

Karen
