Speech & Language Therapy Center

My son has attended Speech Camp here and I wanted to share our amazing experience. My son has a variety of diagnoses but what accompanies all of those are behavioral challenges. My son had been kicked out of typical camps in the past and we were tired of receiving the dreaded phone calls. I discovered this place through a friend who recommended speech camp and speech services through LA Speech and Language Therapy Center. Her son had significant gains while in camp. It was such a relief to finally find the right camp where most importantly, they were working on my son’s severe speech apraxia and delays, while providing a super fun camp experience similar to what he would receive anywhere else. Just better! Each week had a theme, and that alone with the weekly field trips really got my son’s brain and speech moving forward because of all the experiences. Best of all, when my son’s behavior was terrible, I was informed in such a respectful manner and never once was told he could no longer be there. The team of therapists and aides treated him with empathy, while still having high expectations and doing everything to make his experience a successful one. We are so thankful to this center. Everyone we met and came in contact with were supportive and motivating. On the first day, Dr. Wiley went through everything our kids would experience during camp and some of what they hoped to achieve with all students/​campers, after drop off. She completely put our minds at ease and knew we were in the right place, finally. Everyday that I picked up my son he did not want to leave! Every morning upon waking up the first thing on his mind was speech camp. We will continue to put our son in this center’s various programs. I honestly wish we had discovered this place sooner, as my son is 9 now. In addition to camp, we received a very helpful and thorough speech evaluation through this center that I was able to use at our last IEP. I would recommend anyone that has a kid with some speech concerns, to call them immediately. They are staffed with brilliant speech pathologists and supportive aides. Dr. Wiley’s focus on the special needs community could not be more evident by her continued efforts to not only support young children but young adults transitioning from high school into the community. I feel we have a very supportive extended family here at LA Speech, and we could not be more thankful for their helping my son grow so much. Sincerely, The Petersen Family

I tried to schedule an evaluation for my son and I could not get the woman who answered the phone to schedule something in August and were in June! She stated they were busy for summer sessions which I do understand but she was rude and did not try to accommodate and give me an appointment for August once the sessions end. I always think the person answering the phone at any business should be very helpful. This person was terrible and should not be at the front desk. Maybe the staff was great but I’ll never know because I would not want to go there :(

My son has been in the Early Intervention (EI) Program for close to six months and we could not be happier with the progress he has made. The EI program is three days a week and taught by teachers and aides trained in language development. The child to teacher ratio is 2:1 and the curriculum is filled with support for speech, occupational, and physical development. In the beginning, there were steady staff changes for the aides, but the main teacher has only changed once. There are often changes once school resumes and schedules can shift, but there has always been at least two consistent faces to help the kids transition. The Center itself is secure, clean, and dedicated to the growth of the children in the program.

Angela should get fired from this place she doesn’t deserve to be around parents or children that come to this place she’s a selfish person horrible employee i feel sad for Dr. Wiley for hiring heartless people. The worst part Dr. Wiley believes her employees than the parents be careful with the employees they treat parents with no respect, and Dr. Wiley stands behind her employees say before believing parent’s complaint.
