Audiology & Speech Pathology
Overview
Helping you hear, speak and connect—at every stage of life.
Hearing and communication are essential to how we live, learn and relate to others. At SIU Medicine, our Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology team offers expert care for patients of all ages. Whether you're concerned about hearing loss, speech delays, voice changes or swallowing problems, we provide compassionate, comprehensive support built around your needs.
What We Do
Our audiologists and speech-language pathologists (SLPs) work closely with ENT physicians, neurotologists, pediatricians and neurologists to evaluate and treat disorders of hearing, speech, language, voice, cognition and swallowing.
We understand how these systems are connected—and how important they are to everyday life.
