I love Ocean Beach Speech because of their Speech Therapists Meghan and Michael. The quality of care they gave to my daughter is amazing. The first speech therapist of my daughter was Meghan. My daughter is 2 years old that has stranger anxiety issues before. And she don't speak a lot of words. She always cries a lot whenever she gets frustrated. When she had sessions with Meghan, she is really interacting well and she loves playing with her. I am amazed on how they make learning fun with my kid. And in every session she is sooo excited to see Meghan. She loves learning new things and she is speaking new words. I am very happy of my baby girl's progress. She loves Meghan because she always have this big smile whenever she sees her. Meghan is one of the sweet and best teacher / speech therapist they have and their substitute speech therapist Michael is also the best. When Meghan is on maternity leave, Michael is now my toddler's speech therapist. I am amazed on the care and patience they gave to my little girl. Both speech therapist are excellent on their crafts and they have special skills that make the kids happy with every session. My daughter is always excited to see Michael and she loves learning words while playing his cool educational toys. She is speaking a lot of words now. She can speak sentences now. She really improved a lot. I highly recommend Ocean Beach Speech Therapy. They are soooo great with kids that has speech delays. Thank you very much for everything. Your speech therapist are sooooooooooo amazing ( Meghan and Michael ). Thank you for your kind service and care you gave to my daughter. Excellent ! And their manager Melanie is also nice too.

During one of my son's scheduled sessions, his actual LICENSED therapist did not show up. No one on…read morestaff seemed to know where she was or whether she was even on the property. Instead, my son was seen for the entire session by an UNLICENSED trainee who is still in school. No one asked me if I was ok with this happening. In addition, we were billed for the appointment as if he had received care from a licensed therapist. The following week, the same therapist again failed to show up for her shift. Rather than offering any solution or attempting to reschedule, I simply received a text message stating that our appointment was canceled because no one was available to replace her. There was no phone call, no apology, and no attempt to accommodate another time. Beyond this, the sessions themselves were only 30 minutes and mostly consisted of basic play activities in the back room. Allowing my child to be seen for an entire session by someone who is not licensed and still in training unsupervised, while billing us for a full therapy appointment, is beyond unprofessional and borderline illegal.

This place was referred by our Primary Physician. My child wasn't interested in the 30 min play…read moresessions. He was bored of the toys selected. Children of special needs have particular habits and objects they obsess over. HELLO?! The therapist would select things he wasn't interested in...so he would play with the cabinets and window curtains in the office instead. I wanted to make this work....I even gave some advice on toys he would love but the therapist stated " we're not there yet" she finally gave the desired toy last 5 minutes of the 30 minutes session and my son was finally enjoying and engaging with the play. Therapist says "Wow we should have started with that toy to begin with!" In my head I'm like "Duuuuh" If you pick the right toys for certain kids with certain favors then my child would engaged -- and therefore would participate in play = to talk! We had 1 substitute therapist twice and she was amazing... lots of energy and encouraging play and prying out words from my boy with all the RIGHT toys! He had so much fun with Paige! Unfortunately if your schedule doesn't fit, you don't get that therapist. We gave this place 3 months....fr Sept to Dec. With no improvements. A single 30 min play cost about $100ish a session! Your therapist better be working.... our therapist was lazy and barely spoke with my son...mainly with me. Why? *yawn* So boring and so awkward! Everyone was bored and wanted the 30 mins to be over!! LOL We were constantly staring at our watches and staring at each other, Or listening to the sounds outside the door. Come on ..these sessions aren't cheap, and it's just 30 mins...you'd expect they work it right? Mrs. Rachel on YouTube does a better job. And the receptionist Karla has a terrible attitude every time. She has a snotty tone like she's being bothered when you call or come up to the window to talk. I thought the first time maybe she was just having a bad day....but this was every single time! 3 months of crap service. Never coming back again.

My lil guy has had a decade of speech therapy ( started at age 2) and I've never felt as informed…read moreand hopeful as I felt after our visit at NorthStar .... NorthStar Wowed us with the little things which are BIG to ASD families "literally made us feel like we matter" Northstar took the time to go over Bear's situation and remembered it ! Dr. Katherine listened to bears needs, she knew his likes. An iPad was already set up with his favorite reinforcers when we arrived...I couldn't have been more impressed!!! Northstar is going to empower a lot of children and families in a very positive way. As I mentioned for 10 years, I've tried several Speech companies over a dozen Slp's spent hours on researching the current options not knowing which was right for Bear such as pecs, more than words, and several AAC device apps for my little nonverbal guy. Mind blown !!!! because in one hour Slp, Maddie at NorthStar gave me enough information about my sons learning style (which happens to be Gasalt) something I had never heard of it until that day, plus several new tips on how to communicate with him and to get him to communicate with me. Since that appointment I discovered that my sons learning type wasn't new it's actually been around since the 80s but that a lot of Slp's haven't heard of it or don't know enough about it which is unfortunate, because it tends to be according to research the main modality of learning for learners on the autism spectrum. Who knew? Oh Northstar!!! I cannot stress enough the importance of somebody explaining to you HOW to work with your child (since there are a lot more hours in the day than just one for speech therapy) it's something that "you need to carry it over" do at home to get maximum results!!!!! when you have the right support and knowledge the sky's the limit... Maddie, thank you from the bottom of my heart for focusing on Bear and his needs recognizing how he learns language and how we can implement strategies to further his communication....You have pointed me in the right direction after years of circling confused wondering why such slow progression Your knowledge is so informative the most researched based current and best approach to assisting him in his communication journey. I truly felt like we were stuck in one area and now with so much more information in my toolbox. I'm anticipating seeing so much more language from my lil guy... PLEASE if you are a parent of a non-speaking child, whether that's due to autism or any other speech, delays issues or concerns """""I highly recommend that you give NorthStar try """" you will get set on the right path.... literally follow the North Star""""" Also if you are a parent who's been feeling defeated by the lack of progress let me assure you that there is hope this is the place to start or start over !!!! I'm already seeing progress

Every session is thoughtfully guided with patience, care, and a true understanding of who he is as an individual. We appreciate her more than we can fully express.

We've had such a wonderful experience with Gina C. at Radiant Kids Therapy. Gina truly listens to…read moreparents' concerns and takes the time to set clear, realistic expectations, which immediately made us feel supported and confident in our son's care. What really sets Gina apart is her patient-led approach. She meets my son where he is and adjusts each session based on his needs in the moment. Gina is incredibly compassionate, sweet, and attentive to cues. When my son becomes overwhelmed and needs space--sometimes even needing to step into a quiet corner--Gina recognizes this right away and adapts without pressure. That flexibility and understanding helped her build real trust with him. Because Gina listens, observes, and adjusts so thoughtfully, our son feels safe and respected during sessions, and that has made a huge difference in his progress. She is a fantastic representative of Radiant Kids Therapy, and I highly recommend her to any family looking for a caring, patient, and child-centered speech therapist.

Dr. Wu is the main reason that my family members and I continue to stay at UCSD Health for our care. She is super intelligent, kind, and an extraordinary physician. She is even bilingual (Chinese). Personally, she has been keeping my family and I healthy and alive for about 20 years now. I have other family members who have been with her much longer (30 years!). She is in such demand that she has a full patient load. Still, she manages to respond to all of her patients and care for them all right away. Dr. Wu is also a genius and figures out most health issues upon hearing the symptoms. Many doctors will just prescribe without knowing; she is much more comprehensive than most. She also has homeopathic suggestions to help with discomfort when the issue is minor (back aches, congestion, neck pain, etc.) Dr. Wu is who I want to always have care for my family and I, so wherever she goes, we will be there.
