Robin Bruce, M.S., CCC-SLP

Speech-Language Pathologist

(she, her, hers)

Robin began her career as an elementary education teacher specializing in kindergarten and language development. She noticed that the children who had the most difficulty in class also attended speech classes at the school. Wanting to make a difference, Robin went back and got her master's degree at the University of South Florida in Communication Sciences and Disorders. During graduate school, she fell in love with the medical side of speech pathology and working with adults. She has worked in inpatient acute care, long-term acute care with tracheotomy and ventilator dependent patients, Home Health and skilled nursing facilities. Her specialty areas are swallowing disorders, speech sound production disorders and neurogenic language rehab. In her free time, Robin loves to spend time in her garden with the dogs and cooking fun stuff.
