The minute I spoke with Lynda at NYSS, I knew I was dealing with phenomenal, compassionate people. Ashley H. did an amazing job and opened up a whole new world for my husband who lost his speech. Now he can be heard again. Thank you just isn’t enough. “

From my first contact with NYSS, I knew I could count of them. There is nothing like knowing a loved one is in capable, loving hands and that is exactly the feeling I have with Ashley. I will be forever grateful to NYSS for helping us make Aunt Julie comfortable and safe.”

Judy has been central to my grandmother’s post-stroke recovery. Grandma has made dramatic improvements from the time she came home from the hospital with no language. Today she laughs and chats much like her old self. I am confident that the grandma we love today would not be here without Judy’s steadfast support. Judy has been kind, professional and committed to building grandma’s speech and swallow development. Having been involved in eldercare management for several years, I cannot say how rare—and refreshing—it is to find a wonderful professional like Judy.”

I was told I would never be able to eat normal food again. Thanks to Judy and VitalStim swallowing therapy, my life has been turned around. I can now eat a regular diet and lead a normal diet. My feeding tube was just removed. Judy truly is a miracle worker.”

Your expertise and caring manner produced results far beyond our expectations. My wife’s swallowing has improved dramatically. She was on a feeding tube, not having eaten anything by mouth in over a year. Now she is back to eating foods and drinks she enjoys.”

My mom had a massive stroke and lost her speech. After many months of speech therapy elsewhere, my mom was ready to give up and accept she may never be able to fully communicate verbally. Through research, I found NY Speech Solutions. The results in the short time we have been going are phenomenal. I can finally understand and have a conversation with my Mom again!”

Judy is the sole reason I can speak today. I had 6 strokes and a brain operation which left me paralyzed and unable to speak for a year. Judy took my silence and with her caring, patience and talent, worked her magic and gave me my voice back again. From the bottom of my heart and from my family, thank you!”

I had a bad auto accident. It left me with voice paresis and a choking sensation when I swallowed. Then I found NY Speech Solutions. With VitalStim Therapy, my voice returned as well as my ability to swallow liquids without coughing. I thought my time for speaking was over. Whoever knew this kind of thing even existed.”

My son has suffered from speech problems since he was a child. By age 20, he had made considerable progress, but still could not articulate clearly. We worried about how this would affect his ability to get a job. He’s been working with Judy for three months and his speech is so much clearer and he is so much more confident! He was able to interview well and get a job this summer. Judy has really made a tremendous difference in his clarity and pace. Many, many thanks!”

Judy Cavallo has been working with my father who suffered a stroke which left him unable to speak. She provides comprehensive speech therapy which not only focuses on his speech production and voice quality but his cognition and reading skills. All have progressed under her kind and gentle yet highly effective approach. Her insight in the field is extremely impressive. She is always suggesting and trying new ideas to improve his speech and quality of life. Her passion for the field and her clients is heartfelt. We are lucky to have her on our team.”

Doug sustained a brain injury in a car crash 23 years ago and has been actively working on his recovery for the past 13 years. When we found New York Speech Solutions online, we were immediately impressed with the multiple evaluation and treatment techniques. Within days of therapy, Doug reported that he had better control over his tongue while eating. Thanks to New York Speech Solutions, Doug and I now have the tools to approach Doug’s swallowing and speech difficulties in a positive manner.”

Before I started working with Judy, I was unable to safely swallow any foods or liquids. I received all my foods through a feeding tube. After 16 sessions of VitalStim Therapy, I can now safely swallow puree foods and thickened liquids. 2 swallowing tests confirmed a significant improvement in my swallowing.”

I wanted to let you know how wonderful it was to work with Ashley Myers. She was extremely professional and very respectful throughout the assessment of my mom. Best of all, her warm and approachable manner put my mother at ease and made her feel comfortable.”

My grandmother receives speech therapy in her home by Ashley who is knowledgeable and compassionate. Ashley has treated my grandmother’s speech and voice, but has also tended to the overwhelming emotions that come along with speech difficulties. We are grateful for New York Speech Solutions.”
