What can I expect when I make an appointment?
Making an appointment with Newcastle Speech Pathology is a simple process. Firstly you will want to discuss your concerns and needs with someone on our Speech Pathology team. Feel free to ask as many questions as you need before making the appointment. To book an appointment, we will ask you for some specific details including the client’s date of birth and best email and phone contact. After we have made the appointment you will receive an email confirming the date and time, along with some general information about our practice. Depending on the age of the client, you may also be sent a Client Questionnaire which we ask you to complete and bring in to your first appointment.
At the first appointment we will discuss your concerns in greater detail and commence the assessment process. At the end of the appointment we will discuss ‘where to from here’. A written summary report will be provided for preschool and school aged children at the conclusion of the assessment process.
Newcastle Speech Pathology welcomes the opportunity to answer your questions and respond to your concerns.
