Hi, My name is Esther and I’m a speech pathologist based out of Fort Myers, Florida. I am originally from Chicago but have been practicing here in Florida for 5 years. I do home health with multiple companies and also see clients privately. I always try to connect potential clients with a company that will take their insurance before charging out of pocket. I specialize in dysphagia (swallowing trouble), voice, aphasia (language difficulties), cognitive difficulties, and AAC. Some types of clients I work with are post stroke, brain injury, post surgery prolonged intubation, pre-during-post cancer treatment, ALS, Parkinsons, and dementia. I’d love to chat and see if I can help!
