Paediatric Speech Pathologist | Perth WA | Family-Focused Private Practice
n Early intervention & school-age caseload | Full time or part-time
n
Mediix Recruitment is partnering with a warm, family-focused paediatric practice in Perth looking to welcome another Speech Pathologist to their clinical team. The practice has a strong reputation among local paediatricians, GPs and schools, and offers the kind of setting where clinicians can do genuinely good work without the pressure of a corporate-scale caseload.
