Our Mission
At Neurocare SLP, we are dedicated to optimizing the communication and swallowing abilities of people with neurogenic disorders through personalized therapy, empowering them to connect, express, and nourish themselves with confidence and independence.
"As a speech-language pathologist specializing in skilled nursing rehabilitation settings, I am acutely aware of the impact that recent cuts to Medicare and Medicaid have had on both therapists and patients. These reductions have exerted increased pressures, leading to reduced treatment times and compromised treatment quality. Because of this, patients are experiencing suboptimal outcomes. Recognizing the significance of functional and high-quality rehabilitation, I am committed to allocating the time and resources for my patients to maximize and attain the therapeutic gains that they deserve."
What Can We Offer You?
We provide a range of speech and language services, including comprehensive evaluations and therapy to address functional, outcome-driven treatment. Speech therapy services can address speech production and clarity, training and implementing use of alternative communication modalities, language comprehension and expression, cognitive-communication skills, voice and resonance, swallowing dysfunction, and caregiver/family training to carryover optimal results in the home. I strive to provide therapy that is effective, functional and engaging, fostering improved abilities and enhancing overall quality of life.
Now providing therapy services by telehealth video conferences and home visits across Long Island, New York.
