Note: Effective Aug. 4, 2025, the clinic will be moving to our new location at 302 S. Grand Avenue in the new Health Sciences Academic Building. Our clinic is located on the southeast side of the building, near Melrose Avenue.
In every session, we aspire to two goals: superior clinical education for our graduate students in speech-language pathology and audiology and state-of-the-art services to individuals in our community with communication and related disorders. Our clients are partners in these successes; they receive speech, language or hearing evaluation and treatment by our graduate student clinicians, under the careful supervision of our licensed and experienced clinical professors.

Referrals
Do you or someone close to you have a suspected or diagnosed communication disorder? Referrals to the University of Iowa Speech, Language, and Hearing Clinic can be made by audiologists, speech-language-pathologists, educators, physicians or through self-referrals. If you have a current assessment (diagnosis), it helps us plan treatment; please forward a current assessment and any suggested treatment plan before your scheduled appointment. However, if those are not available, we will schedule a diagnostic appointment with appropriate testing at the clinic.
