My son has been attending Lindfield Speech pathology for a year now, and his speech has finally taken off. The therapists are very good with young children, as well as being patient and very experienced. The premises are clean and accessible with great parking. There are a range of therapists within the centre to cater to a full spectrum of concerns and speech and learning difficulties.
I would highly recommend their services to any parent concerned about the progress of their child’s speech development or learning.

My son has been attending Lindfield Speech Pathology for two years and we have always found them to be helpful and professional.
My son had made incredible progress and has been nurtured by all of the staff. Not only have they been supportive of my son but also of me as his parent.
They have worked well with other specialists that my son sees as well as his school to work out the best plan for him.
I have recommended them to other friends and would have no hesitation in recommending them again.

Came highly recommended by parents with special needs children as well as our Developmental Paed. We have had fantastic results with our children seeing Lauri. I always comment that as grumpy and tired as they may be going in after school she manages to turn their frowns around and they come home happy and have not even realised they're learning nor having literacy intervention. The practice has longstanding and up to date knowledge /feedback of other interventionists which is helpful as a parent as these things usually go hand in hand with OT, Audio, Paed etc. We have always found that they're

Very satisfied with our therapy and the centre. Our daughter has been attending for articulation help and we have seen a lot of improvement with her speech. The therapist is very good at making my shy and self conscious child feel comfortable. I get good feedback on the sessions and the centre is friendly and nurturing. Easy to get to and most important - lots of parking!

Awful customer service, development of the child has little priority, company cares only about how much money they can squeeze out of you, reception is obnoxious and rude, threatens financial action when school is closed for carnivals and they're unable to dig full service fee from you. Then send you an overdue notice 5 weeks later demanding payment for a charge that they said they wouldn't charge you! Very little parent feedback on assessment and sessions - have to request for this to happen, which is ridiculous given they're alone in a room with your young child...
We received a note from school
