After recognizing a need for privatized help for kids with speech disabilities, Summer Price opened Middle Hill Speech and Voice Clinic in Draper, where she and two other women balance caring for their kids at home and assisting kids at the clinic.

DRAPER — Summer Price says the best part of owning a speech pathology clinic is working with kids one-on-one, rather than in a crowded classroom.

To better help students one-on-one — and, at the same time, work with a flexible schedule to take care of her infant son — Price decided to open her own speech pathology clinic. Both employees came from the public sector, having worked in public schools, and noticed the lack of privatized, individual care for those with speech impairments or disabilities.

"Unfortunately, just due to staffing and everything, there just isn't enough time to see as many kids or do as good of a job as we always want to in the schools," Pittam said. As she's seen more clients filling her and her co-workers' time slots, Price said she's excited to continue expanding her clinic — hopefully renting other offices in their suite, hiring more pathologists and seeing more kids.
