- This includes difficulties within the oral (mouth) phase, the pharyngeal (throat) phase, and further down into the oesophagus (food pipe)

With a focus on patient-centred care
Providing a mobile service to Shoalhaven communities
We come to you
Shoalhaven Speech & Swallowing Clinic offers a mobile service, bringing care directly to you and your loved ones in the comfort and privacy of your own home. Being treated in a familiar environment allows for more personalised support, with the added benefit of assessing how communication or swallowing challenges play out in everyday life. This service also ensures greater accessibility for all members of the community, including those who may have difficulty travelling to clinics due to mobility, health or transport limitations.

We offer telehealth services to patients across Australia.
Did you know available evidence suggests telehealth (that is, the delivery of care via remote modalities such as phone calls or video platforms), is an effective and valuable method for delivering speech pathology care? Studies indicate telehealth can be just as effective as in-person therapy for various communication challenges, with patients achieving comparable outcomes. If you would like to explore whether telehealth might be an option for your speech pathology journey, please get in touch.
We are ready to help!
