What does a Speech Pathologist do?

According to the American Speech-Language Hearing Association,

"Of all the gifts bestowed upon humanity, the ability to communicate is one of the most important. Any impairment of this ability can have far-reaching consequences, affecting every aspect of a person's life, from learning, to work, to interactions with family, friends, and community. Audiologists and speech-language pathologists provide services to prevent, diagnose, evaluate, and treat communication disorders."
