Brooke Richardson

Brooke Richardson, MS, CCC-SLP is a Medical Speech-Language Pathologist in the United States. She's been treating adults with complex medical needs in the acute and outpatient settings since 2009. She has been instrumental in establishing Respiratory Muscle Training (RMT) programs in multiple hospitals and other healthcare settings, and has spoken internationally on RMT. Brooke values exceptional-quality continuing education for other clinicians, and seeks to improve our patient care by emphasizing the importance of understanding a patient's whole medical picture when evaluating and treating.
