At Rady Children's, the primary focus of our Speech Pathologists is early intervention for children 0 to 3 years of age, oftentimes on the autism spectrum, as well as medically-complex children. Speech Pathologists evaluate children with speech, language, cognitive, feeding/swallowing, and auditory impairments and provide specialized therapy to develop their language skills.

Speech Pathologists craft family-centered, innovative treatment plans through onsite and virtual visits to improve the patient's functional potential. In fact, innovation is such a meaningful part of who we are that our team regularly presents outcome studies at national conferences.

We provide multiple opportunities for growth and advancement, including in-house continuing education credits (up to 10 CEUs per year), and opportunities to train in different specialties. We are proud to have a team mix of tenured employees and those early in their careers. Lifelong learners and those ready to act as a mentor in their area of specialty will thrive in this role. We welcome those who are looking to making a difference in the lives of kids in San Diego and beyond!
