We were asked to consult a speech therapist for my son. As parents we were quite skeptical about this whole process. However, once my son started attending Dr Rupali’s sessions we noticed a drastic improvement in his speech. He used to speak only a few words but within the 1st four sessions he started speaking up-to 5 words sentences. I also learnt to manage my child’s emotions better with Dr Rupali’s guidance. She is very cooperative and patiently answer all questions.

We took our 21 month old daughter to Bridges speech center following her cleft palate surgery as she needed Speech therapy. Ms.Rupali was recommended to us by both our Pediatrician and ENT specialist. The staff at Bridges are qualified, warm and friendly. My daughter loved to attend the speech therapy sessions. Through various techniques and simulations provided during these sessions, I can see considerable improvement in my daughter's speech. Lastly I would say, no child is same, as parents we need to be patient and trust the process.
