I had a stroke 8 months ago. I moved from Danbury Hospital to Meadow Ridge and worked with a home company, but none helped. Only after I started with Sarah Gromko did I experience a breakthrough. She taught me everything about my speech. I highly recommend her!
I am incredibly grateful for the care and support I’ve received from Sarah. I’ve been seeing Sarah since the fall of 2023, a few months after having a stroke which impacted my speech. Her expertise, patience, and encouragement have played a huge role in the progress I’ve made and I continue to work with her to improve my reading and speech.
I suffered a serious TBI and had serious issues with memory, executive function, concentration, reasoning, headaches and dizziness. Sarah Gromko has provided Speech Therapy services which have enhanced my cognitive ability, reasoning, concentration and minimized my headaches and dizziness. Sarah has been responsible for helping me manage and understand the issues related to my TBI and help me lead a functional life.
Acquired brain injury (ABI) refers to damage to the brain that occurs due to trauma, stroke, infection, Long COVID, or other medical conditions. At GromKo. Voice, we provide compassionate, personalized care for individuals recovering from an ABI. We understand how ABI can affect every aspect of life, and our goal is to help you or your loved one regain essential communication and cognitive skills to enhance quality of life.
What We Treat
ABI can result in a wide range of challenges that impact daily living. We specialize in:
- Speech and Language Disorders: Struggling to find words, forming sentences, or slurred speech can be frustrating and isolating. Conditions like aphasia, dysarthria, and apraxia of speech often make it hard to express thoughts clearly or connect with others.
- Cognitive-Communication Challenges: Memory lapses, trouble concentrating, and difficulties organizing thoughts can interfere with work, relationships, and independence. Many experience frustration with solving problems or following conversations.
- Swallowing Disorders (Dysphagia): Difficulty swallowing can affect eating and drinking safely, leading to health risks and a reduced enjoyment of meals.
