Dana Hodgins – Speech-Language Pathologist

As a speech-language pathologist, I have been working with Dr. Pure since 2009. Together, we have shared many clients and provided consultation services for various families and support agencies. Dr. Pure’s passion, commitment and genuine care for the well-being of her patients and their families is evidenced by all.

Over the years, I have referred many families to Dr. Pure. They have all been extremely pleased with her ability to incorporate change into their child’s home and school environments. Dr. Pure makes sure to involve all appropriate professionals in the families’ lives and as such, she ensures that each child is receiving the proper, individualized care that he/she deserves. As a result of her hard work and dedication, all the families I have referred to Dr. Pure are extremely satisfied with her services and highly recommend her to others.
