Do you know?
Many people without proper training in speech language pathology are also involved in stammering and other communication disorder treatment. Few organize workshop for people having stammering .Many ex-stammerer without having training in speech language pathology are also write about themselves speech therapist/doctor designation in India and run stammering cure center, speech therapy center ,stammering care center and conduct stammering correction classes due to lack of awareness. Some of this quack will take guarantee for stammering cure/therapy. Truth is different. There is no 100% cure for stammering. It can be managed by speech therapy and management can be that an extent hardly any one notice the person is having stammering. I have seen a few people from MBBS background, those who were not able to get PG seat in their field ,also talk about stammering and conduct workshop for people having stammering for money making/unemployment. We know their training are in medicine and surgery. There is no medicine and no surgery for stammering. But still they will talk about stammering.

Few doctors suggest medicine also but the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved any drug for the treatment of stuttering. However, some drugs that are approved to treat other health problems—such as epilepsy, anxiety, or depression—have been used to treat stuttering. These drugs often have side effects that make them difficult to use over a long period of time. In a recent study funded by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), researchers concluded that drug therapy has been largely ineffective in controlling stuttering. Clinical trials of other possible drug treatments are currently under way.

WHAT OTHER INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY SAYS?
According to The British stammering Association, Keith Boss, a person with stammering,
BSA Trustee; International Stuttering Association Director; Chair of ISA Outreach
Where do I start?
We do suggest that you try to see a qualified speech and language therapist, at least in the first instance. Ref: http://www.stammering.org/adther.html



How do you know who are the speech language pathologist /Speech therapist?
These are the professionals trained for the assessment and treatment of all kinds of communication disorders. They should have the following qualification:
B.Sc. (Hons ) Speech and Hearing/B.Sc. Speech and Hearing/Bachelor in Audiology and speech language Pathology (BASLP)
M.Sc. Speech language pathology/M.Sc. speech and hearing/ Master in audiology and Speech language Pathology (MASLP)
Certified by Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI) to work in India
Although in India bachelor degree holders are also eligible to work as speech language pathologist/ speech therapist, but in developed countries like US minimum requirement is master degree. DHLS is diploma course in the field of speech and hearing and these professional are trained to work as speech therapist assistant/audiologist assistant. They are not speech therapist or audiologist and they can only work under the supervision of speech language pathologist/speech therapist/audiologist.

Speech therapist and Audiologist are not an MBBS doctor or Ex –stammerer. To work in India they should have the qualification :

B.Sc. (Hons) Speech and Hearing/B.Sc. Speech and Hearing/BASLP

Always check does your speech therapist/audiologist have such qualification before joining any center for speech therapy, Hearing test, hearing aid

If he does not have such qualification you may have consulted a quack, BEWARE. .
