University of Utah Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic Will Offer Telehealth Therapy to Parkinson’s Patients in D.C. Area

“We have a mission to provide affordable services to patients diagnosed with Parkinson’s,” says College of Health associate professor and clinical lead Brett Myers, PhD, CCC-SLP. “We are excited to offer these services as the SPEAK OUT! Therapy & Research Center for Utah, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.” 

The entire program takes place online, so patients can participate from home as long as they have an Internet connection. During eight one-on-one sessions, they will learn exercises from the clinic’s expert practitioners and graduate students. SPEAK OUT! patients then continue in online group therapy to maintain their skills.

“We selected the University of Utah’s Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic because of their compassion and their commitment to serving their Parkinson’s community,” says Samantha Elandary, founder and CEO of the Parkinson Voice Project.
