Why Choose Excel SLT?
What's Our Motivation?
At Excel SLT, we appreciate the impact that communication and swallowing have on a person's quality of life.
We understand that both are highly valuable aspects of enjoying living and to that end, we are here to offer assessment and intervention for people who are facing challenges with their communication and swallowing abilities.
Whether the challenges are secondary to brain injuries, surgical interventions, cancer diagnoses or degenerative neurological conditions, Excel SLT are ready to help.
We are open to referrals from Case Managers, Solicitors, NHS and self funding individuals.

Communication
We strive to maintain open and honest communication. We listen, learn and share knowledge to ensure we are meeting the needs and wishes of the client and to ensure everyone is on the same page.
Collaboration
Our values underpin everything we do and we truly believe that to put the client first we must collaborate with other health professionals, the client’s family and care teams.
Courage
Working with adults who have complex conditions can be challenging, but we aim to be bold and courageous in finding the right solutions to overcome these challenges.

We will always be courteous, treating others with politeness, respect and consideration, fostering positive, healthy teamwork.
