"...Susie has done an outstanding job with giving our son, Daniel, the skills and guidance for successful speech, and the coping skills to help self-correct his speech. Susie has been dedicated, patient, professional, and goes well over and beyond what is expected. Her commitment, feedback, and follow-up style have been excellent! We have had much success with Susie and thank her for expanding Daniel's world... he has gained much confidence and self-assurance. Recently, Daniel was able to initiate and speak in front of a large group of people!

"Susie has been a perfect speech and language pathologist for my daughter, Katie, who has Down syndrome. Katie is now 27 and still sees Susie occasionally, after more than 20 years of therapy. Our daughter's needs are very complex and Susie has made a huge difference in her life, enabling her to have good self-esteem and lots of friends. Katie works at three offices and participates in Phame Academy for fine arts. Susie has been ever patient and creative in her therapy, keeping it fun and functional to fit Katie's interests and needs. She has met us in her office and out in the community to practice speech intelligibility. As a mom, I have especially appreciated the extra time and attention to problem solving and improving Katie's quality of life at school, in the workplace, and at home. It's very apparent that Susie loves her clients and her work, and gives 100% effort. On a scale of 1 to 10, Susie rates a 10 with us!

"... we can honestly say that Susie is an amazingly dedicated, kind, and knowledgable speech pathologist. Her dedication to 'her children' goes beyond the call of duty. Often we would get an email or phone call after our daughter's session with a new plan to approach a certain problem. Susie's expert insights and her way of communicating with our daughter has shown in the almost miracle transformation our daughter has made in less than two years, from a child who could barely say a few words to being able to form sentences. Our gratitude to Susie is heartfelt."
