In 1914 the University of Wisconsin-Madison opened the first speech clinic in the country. Today, the UW Speech and Hearing Clinic (UWSHC) helps people communicate to the best of their abilities and lead fuller, more productive lives. The audiologists and speech-language pathologists at the UWSHC offer the highest-quality evaluation, treatment, and consultation services for children and adults with speech, language, hearing, and related communication needs. The UWSHC is a teaching clinic where graduate student clinicians provide individualized service under the guidance and supervision of state-licensed and nationally certified speech-language pathologists and audiologists. The UWSHC supports equitable treatment of clients. No individual shall be discriminated against based upon race or ethnicity, nationality, religion, age, s*x, gender identity, disability, or s*xual orientation. We provide all services in a manner consistent with the American Speech Language and Hearing Association Codes of Ethics. The clinic uses a variety of assessment tools, including standardized and non-standardized tests, and procedures developed by students and faculty. When planning treatment, we keep family, caregiver, and client preferences in mind, and use an evidence-based practice approach.
