Telehealth and voice

Published on

At Voice Medicine Australia we have been offering online consultations for many years and found them to work extremely well and keep us all globally connected.

During this time of COVID-19 we are using virtual or online sessions for almost all voice therapy or other related speech pathology sessions, so it’s business as usual.

We will offer some limited face-to-face sessions if crucial but believe online is an ideal option for your and our safety and convenience. You can choose Skype, Zoom, Facetime or other platforms and we will talk you through set-up so we optimise the experience.

Contact info@melbvoice.com.au to arrange your online appointment and we can still keep your voice and wellbeing a top priority.

New Grad Program

Published on

We are thrilled to launch our VMA New Graduate (NG) /Internship program! This 6 to 12 month-position offers comprehensive and fully supported exposure to the full and varied caseloads of VMA and completes our team. Although already fully qualified to assess and treat communication and swallowing disorders, the NG will be expertly and incrementally guided by one of our experienced speech pathologists to ensure VMA continues to deliver a high standard of evidence-based care and optimal outcomes for our patients. We all love to share our passion for assessment and management of voice and related disorders and this opportunity to mentor and review our practices with fresh eyes extends our skills too.

Also, for those patients who are facing fiscal restraints or are unable to be seen by one of our other busy speech pathologists in a timely manner, we are confident this is an excellent alternative.

We are delighted to introduce Kate Cohn who will make it instantly apparent why she has been chosen as our inaugural recipient!
