• The diversity of Clients – Having difference in your caseload allows you to get to explore all facets of Speech Pathology. We can refine our interests with experience at ORS.

• The support – All teams at ORS have amazingly skilled Clinicians that offer support in each office and beyond. We have an ‘open door’ policy at ORS - no question is silly and no question is too big. If we can’t answer it we will help you find the answer together!
