It's difficult for me to imagine going from having a normal conversation to having no words. The impacts of losing the ability to communicate are profound.
In this new podcast episode, Dr. Jyutika Mehta and I spoke with Dr. Swathi Kiran and Patrick Prock about language recovery after stroke and evidence-based treatments and innovations in speech therapy that can help reconnect people with their friends, family, and community.
This podcast is sponsored by the Mike A. Myers Stroke Center at Texas Woman's University Dallas.
