• Endoscopy
  Several medications exist that seem to slow down the progression of symptoms, but do not reverse the disease. More often, behavioral interventions are utilized to assist the person in recalling important information or performing daily activities. A speech-language pathologist (SLP) can assist the person with Alzheimer’s use various strategies to preserve communication and cognitive functioning for as long as possible. Examples of strategies include using written cues for completing tasks or to assist memory recall, developing “memory books” to assist in recalling personal information, and training family members or caregivers in how to facilitate improved communication with the person with Alzheimer’s. If the individual presents with swallowing problems, the SLP can work with the person to ensure safe swallowing. After thoroughly evaluating the patient (e.g., clinical exam, videofluoroscopy, or flexible endoscopy), therapy is provided. This may include training compensatory strategies or altering the person’s diet so that they can eat without risk of choking or illness. The ultimate goal of any intervention is to preserve the person’s quality of life for as long as possible.

• Autism
  “I cannot over-exaggerate the impact that All in 1 S.P.O.T. with TheraTalk and its dedicated and talented therapists have had on the Speech, PT and OT advancement of my two sons, ages 10 and 7. My ten year old child who has autism was non-verbal when he started at this facility at age four. Now he is ten and has grown exponentially under the tenacious tutelage of the staff at All in 1 S.P.O.T. The speech staff have helped my son discover his own voice…via pecs, or words, or electronic device. The OT and PT staff have helped him taste independence and acquire practical life skills that he uses throughout his day. He has gone from a world of non-communication and inactivity to one which is continues to burgeon and is replete with the ability to express his emotions, wants and needs with more frequency and accuracy. After years of frustration…He can now say so much more. More important, he can say the most beautiful word in the world to me, “Mama”. Need I say more? The therapists at All in 1 SP.O.T. have known my children since they were young. They feel like family partly because they are just as dedicated and just as happy as I am when my sons reach a new milestone. Over these years, we have laughed together and cried together. All of us. Not just one therapist….all of them. They always bring the latest techniques to the table of learning with my sons and their open door policy creates a happy, welcoming and comfortable environment. The therapy staff all have substantive experience and admirable talents and abilities...but the magic at All in 1 S.P.O.T. is that it is all tempered by their loving hearts and caring hands. The convenience of All in 1 S.P.O.T is another great feature. The concept of having many different therapies at one location is fabulous. Quite frankly, my sons could receive these services at their schools, but as long as I can, I will continue to insist that they receive these quality services at this wonderful facility. My sons love them...and I will forever have a grateful heart for all they’ve done for my children and my family.”

Psychiatrists

• Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
  Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurobiological condition seen primarily in the school-aged population that affects one’ s ability to maintain attention. The disorder and its symptoms are chronic, meaning they affect an individual throughout life. The symptoms are also pervasive, meaning they are a continuous problem and not just a response to a temporary situation. The behaviors occur in multiple settings, rather than just one. Current research supports the idea of two distinct characteristics of ADHD, inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity.
• Depression
• Anxiety

Radiologist

• Chemotherapy
  In other cases, total laryngectomy, with or without radiation therapy or chemotherapy, may be the only life-saving solution. During this operation, a new route for breathing is surgically created. The larynx-end of the windpipe (trachea) is connected to a hole (stoma ) that is made in the neck. Rather than using the mouth and the nose, the person with the laryngectomy will breathe through this stoma.
• Radiation Therapy
  Diagnosis of laryngeal cancer does not always mean surgical removal of the entire larynx. Depending on the size, location, and time of cancer detection, one or more of the following approaches may be used: radiation therapy, chemotherapy, partial laryngectomy. In these cases, voice may be preserved although its quality may not be normal because of removing parts of the larynx, changes to laryngeal tissue from radiation or chemotherapy, or removal of nearby neck muscles (to prevent or stop the spread of the cancer).

When appropriate, specialized equipment, such as, adaptive seating, orthotics, crutches, and walkers are utilized to promote maximal functioning ability for our children.
