Testimonials

Ms. Anna recognized my daughter’s leg was not improving and helped me to know how to advocate for her with her specialists. I will forever be grateful for that. She also helped us to get the right inserts for our little guys flat feet. She has been a wonderful resource for two of my kids. 

Ms. Emily has been so consistent and reliable with our little guy Percy. He doesn’t do transitions well and she’s extremely patient and caring with him. I always know she will do everything she can to help encourage him while helping him to be comfortable. She also helped my daughter Collette with her fine motor skills. She has since graduated OT. She’s just overall been excellent with my kids. 

Both of these ladies have helped my children tremendously. You can see the care they have for the kids they work with. Im truly grateful for their passion for helping kids get to their best. 

Amy is patient with him (Dylan), kind to him, and she encourages him, she has helped him along his journey of trying to get a better understanding of phonological language, and expressive-receptive language. They (TPP) helped when no one else would. They saw the learning disability and not just his adhd. They see the whole child. I would recommend the pediatric place to anyone who has a kiddo needing speech therapy or occupational therapy. Dylan loves Amy!

The staff is absolutely amazing! My son has been doing exceptionally well and even starting to sign and speak more! He loves going to school and is even starting to make friends. I’m so thankful for all that TPP has done for us in helping him succeed.

My son has autism and was diagnosed as non verbal. He would go and see Ms. Janet twice a week and he started to communicate with us more. He then began seeing Ms. Emily for his sensory issues with food and after a while began eating chicken nuggets! My oldest also seen Ms. Anna for physical therapy because of his feet bowing and he accomplished every goal Ms. Anna set for him! I would highly recommend the Pediatric Place for any child who has a developmental disability or any other needs!

We love TPP they have been so loving, caring and really wanted to help my child. They made him succeed in so many different areas of his life. We are so grateful for them…they worked with my child until he got it down. And they were so excited when he did. I will always have a special place in my heart for the whole company and what an amazing team to bring this all together to help so many children succeed in life and at home.

The pediatric place has been an amazing place for my kids! My kiddos are on the spectrum and received OT, PT, and Speech services. They loved their therapists and never wanted to leave whenever we went for therapy. The therapists helped ALOT with transitions (which my sons struggle with) and helped my kids regulate and start to speak more! We have seen so much progress from when we first started to now! The therapists were always welcoming and kept you up to date with their progress/therapy. You can tell they really care and want to help anyway they can.Thank you so much for being amazing to my kids and to me as well! The only reason we are stopping services is because they will be going to preschool. We’d definitely come back if we ever needed to!

With our son being our only child, hearing from his pediatrician that he was delayed in speech makes you wonder how you are doing as a first time parent. When we found TPP it was a learning experience for not only ourselves but also our son. TPP welcomed us with open arms and warm smiles every appointment. Our son’s speech therapist was absolutely fantastic. She would get down to his level to engage him, she would let us know what the focus/plan of the day would be, and she would also give us information sheets on how to continue his therapy at home. With the help of TPP our son is no longer delayed and is a complete chatterbox. We would definitely recommend TPP to everyone.

When my two month old was still struggling to feed properly myself and his pediatrician knew he needed some more help. We were referred to TPP to see Lauren O’Hare for feeding therapy. With her help and guidance we have found that Larry, now almost 5 months old, has underlying conditions and we are on the road to getting those fixed to set him up with the best possible treatment and outcome. I cannot speak highly enough of Lauren and her willingness to help us get the answers and help we need outside of just her services. HIGHLY recommend TPP and all their therapy services to anyone looking!

We absolutely got exceptional service from the staff members. My daughter graduated from the pediatric place and is able to pronounce all her sounds with ease. Thank you to the pediatric place and the staff for all your hard work.

Miss Anna has done so good with working with him (Adrian) on his letter sounds and it is honestly helping so much. Miss Emily continues to work with him on the issues that come up. He is doing so much better with talking and with doing just simple tasks around the house and school. He doesn’t stutter much anymore. He can put his own clothes on, he puts his shoes on the right feet, he can zip up his jackets by himself. He has since been potty trained and continues to do so good with that.

Having a pediatric specific therapy place within 30 miles of us has been so amazing for our daughter! The staff is so friendly and caring – We reccomend this place to all our special needs friends and families! We have had amazing therapists but are currently seeing Miss Carson for speech and the amount of knowledge she has and willingness to connect with our daughter has been so instrumental in us working towards success!

Jessi and Carmen were the biggest blessing! They were caring, compassionate and very knowledgeable. The best part was that they got to come into our home and see Kace. I would 10/10 recommend TPP to anyone and everyone just because of how much they care and what a difference they made in Kace’s life! You never know how much help your child needs until a professional helps you! We couldn’t thank them enough!

Our boy gets to see Mrs.. Courtney at the pediatric place. I have been nothing but impressed with her and her advice and care for our son. She always comes up with solutions to help him and our family. Providing the best care possible. He LOVES her! If anyone is every thinking about going to the pediatric place just do it! You will not be disappointed!

Our son received speech therapy for 4 years and we were so thankful for the care we received while at TPP. He made so much progress during his time there and the only reason we stopped going was because we moved. The staff at TPP was amazing, we were always greeted with a smile. Our son loved therapy so much he was disappointed when we couldn’t go. The therapists are all very skilled and we were so happy to have TPP while we were in Knob!

Our time at TPP was great! We did feeding therapy and our therapist Amanda was phenomenal, I couldn’t recommend her or this place enough! She would go above and beyond for us anytime we needed it even to the point where we had therapy virtually on one of her days off. If you have any feeding concerns for your littles get on Mrs.Amanda’s team for sure and you will be well taken care of.

Our community is extremely fortunate to have The Pediatric Place.

Our community is extremely fortunate to have The Pediatric Place. As a public educator, I have experienced first hand the impact their resources have provided for many children in our community. TPP also gives back by adopting classrooms…I am the lucky teacher who benefits from their time spent with my students!

The Pediatric Place provides the highest level of therapy.

The Pediatric Place provides the highest level of therapy. The owners are passionate and committed to the kids and families. I am always impressed with their creativity to engage the kids in therapy to ensure progress and for these reasons, I recommend them to all my families my agency serves with disabilities. We are extremely excited for their new autism center.

One stop for all his needs.

I’ll never forget when I first got my child’s diagnoses I felt like my world had fallen apart. The Pediatric Place doesn’t just help him but us as well with helping him grow and learn life lessons. I am not sure what we would do with out Chase he has been one of the biggest blessings. But our son has liked everyone he has worked with. One stop for all his needs. From play therapy , speech therapy and OT. What a blessing in our rural community.

I have never felt more blessed to have found this place.

I have never felt more blessed to have found this place. They have ALL been so helpful and kind with my family even though my son is the only one who actually receives therapy here. We have had Mrs. Carmen to check out his mouth she was AMAZING. We had Mrs Amanda for feeding therapy- rockstar I mean! We have Mrs. Anna for PT-she got my guy walking and Mrs. Lydia they are so AMAZING, we consider them family at this point. We are working with Miss Emily for OT and she is wonderful! My guy loves them all and that is HUGE! Even Mrs. Andrea at the front desk is the bomb! The therapists I have met in passing have been so friendly and kind, always a smile on their faces. Great environment. We have visited the knob location also for a sensory haircut- everyone there we encountered were also amazing! They are affordable and truly care about the kids. 10 out of 10 recommend!

My child loves to come here and is getting a lot our of his time here.

The patience and expertise shown by the staff in the office and specific therapist working with my child has been great. My child loves to come here and is getting a lot our of his time here. I would and have referred others to the program here.

We truly loved our time at The Pediatric Place.

We truly loved our time at The Pediatric Place. My daughter did PT and every staff member was wonderful. She worked most with Miss Grace and I can honestly say we looked forward to sessions each week. Her smile, kindness and attention to assuring we got everything we needed for success truly was above and beyond. Everyone who we encountered here showed us such kindness and professionalism. I would recommend anyone if their child is in need to seek services here!

I could not have asked for a better team of ladies to help navigate this new step in our lives!

Zoey is seeing TPP because she was denied services through her school district. I am more than grateful for their help! She sees Miss Kylee for OT and Mrs. Lauren for speech and they are both AMAZING. They are patient, understanding, and do what’s best for Zoey. Sometimes Zoey can be hard to work with or can be very “distracted” during a session and they are always on point with what she needs for that specific visit. I could not have asked for a better team of ladies to help navigate this new step in our lives! THANK YOU TPP!!!!

The change in my son seems miraculous

After searching for and trying different therapists in the state of Missouri to help my son, I finally landed on TPP. From his first evaluation a year and a half ago to now, I have been included along the way in his care. They have listened to my concerns, validated my feelings, and most importantly they have created a specific care plan for him that WORKS. The change in my son seems miraculous, and it is due to their patience, care, and dedication to making sure each child that walks through their doors reaches their highest potential. We travel 1.5 hours ONE WAY to receive therapy at the Clinton location and we gladly do it because Casey, Anna, and Sydney are the dream team coaching my son along!

We have nothing but AMAZING things to say

We have nothing but AMAZING things to say about Courtney VanAlstine! She has been working with Fynn for the past 5 years and her expertise has been wonderful for him! We would choose her over and over again to be his Occupational Therapist and we know she will continue to do great things for other families.

How your staff worked as well with her as they did

We were getting services in Knob Noster at first because that was where we could be seen on Monday’s. Once the SLP left that location we were able to go to Clinton and saw a therapist-she left so we got to see Ms. Janet and she was amazing. She picked right up where the other SLPs left off. Ms. Janet was amazing with explaining to us as parents what they worked on during therapy. She gave great advice that was helpful at home.

Absolutely wonderful place for any therapy.

Absolutely wonderful place for any therapy. Their staff is incredibly kind, patient, and knowledgeable. They always go above and beyond to help any way they can.

They have helped my kiddo along the way and continue to do so.

They are wonderful and caring and everyone puts forth the effort to help any of the kiddos in any way they can. They have helped my kiddo along the way and continue to do so.

I can not thank the therapist enough!

I can not thank the therapist enough! I can tell all of the time and effort that they put into my kiddo is paying off. Before he could not get his “b & d” correct, now he knows which one to use!

I would highly recommend to everyone!

We have had an amazing experience with all the therapist that we have seen. The patience, compassion, and support they have providing our kid as she goes through learning list of new things has been amazing and comforting. I would highly recommend to everyone!

Thanks to their hard work, kindness, and knowledge, I have happy healthy children.

Absolutely could not ask for better therapist! I am so grateful everyday for the assistance they provided for my family! Thanks to their hard work, kindness, and knowledge I have happy healthy children. I’m confident we wouldn’t be in the same place without them today.

The staff at The Pediatric Place are exceptional!

The staff at The Pediatric Place are exceptional! As a colleague I’m blessed by their knowledge to support my own growth. As a parent of kiddos seen by a variety of therapists we were always treated with the upmost compassion and dedication to their wellbeing.

I can’t say enough awesome things about the Knob Noster location of The Pediatric Place!

I can’t say enough awesome things about the Knob Noster location of The Pediatric Place! My son’s speech therapist, Myranda is amazing! She has always been very transparent about his needs and how he is progressing.

I would highly recommend them to my friends and family for any therapy needs.

As an OT student The Pediatric Place is absolutely welcoming and highly beneficial to my education. I would highly recommend them to my friends and family for any therapy needs. Carolyn is an amazing instructor and therapist, as well as Courtney and Kylee who also assisted with additional guidance.

Holi is absolutely amazing and Graisyn loved seeing her!

love the pediatric place!

He was so great (Santa)! Karson loved meeting him! Thank you for hosting – we always struggle finding somewhere Karson doesn’t get overwhelmed at to meet Santa and this is the first year she actually loved it!! love the pediatric place! You guys are a blessing for our girl

both boys were able to gain more movements

Amanda Littrell was there for Bennett and helped save our boy. She was right there when Mason was born and said to bring him in because from photos he looked like he might be tied as well. Because of her, both boys were able to gain more movements, eat without choking, and we were able to get a better look on if Mason had torticollis and needed further therapy. Now that both have graduated feeding therapy we have been seeing Anna for PT with the torticollis and she has been amazing after just 3 visits.

The continuity of care between the therapists is probably the best surprise.

We have been so impressed with the caring people at The Pediatric Place. Both of our boys get services for Speech, PT, and OT, and everyone that works with them is knowledgeable, caring, and professional. The continuity of care between the therapists is probably the best surprise. Even the therapists who don’t work directly with our kids know them and say hi when we walk through the door. We couldn’t be happier, especially given how close and convenient it is. We would highly recommend the practice to anyone.

The one on one time they take to know and help her grow feels so personal.

From the first meeting to the present just being able to see my daughter progress every week/months is the greatest thing I could ask for. The one on one time they take to know and help her grow feels so personal. The ability for them to get special tools to help her be more mobile or actions to help her grow mentally is phenomenal! I know they’ve been so much of a help in her physical and mental development I don’t know how far advanced she would be if it wasn’t for all of their help.

I can’t imagine life without the pediatric place.

Pediatric Place isn’t your regular therapy center. From the moment we called to get evaluations done we were treated with kindness and compassion. Every therapist we’ve encountered has truly loved my boys. They tailor every activity to their likes and interests. Both of my boys LOVE going to therapy. Also, my neurotypical daughter (who is always with us) loves pediatric place because they make her feel special too. Therapists are kind, loving and have even attended extra curricular events because Logan invited them. I can ask questions and it never feels like I’m burdening to them. They truly love my family and I can’t imagine life without the pediatric place. We are so indebted to them for all they’ve done and continue to do for our family. I could go on and on, just know our family couldn’t function without pediatric place. Pediatric Place is part of our family, a very important and special part. Thank you Pediatric Place, for everything.

I can proudly say my daughter is almost 13 now and is thriving.

My daughter Isabelle was diagnosed with autism at three years old, at that time she was non-verbal. Soon after she started in speech therapy with Carmen and remained in therapy there for years. In the beginning Isabelle would go two to three times a week, but Isabelle always looked forward to going due to the loving and fun atmosphere. Carmen was always so hard working, cheerful and welcoming. She connected with the children in a way I can’t explain. I remember being so worried for my child at that time- “will she ever talk?” “Will she be ok?” As the years passed Isabelle eventually graduated therapy and I can proudly say my daughter is almost 13 now and is thriving. She can talk and hold conversations perfectly and I owe it all to Carmen. My daughter would not be where she is today without that therapy. Myself and my entire family will forever be grateful for the services Isabelle received there.

I would gladly recommend TPP to anyone

Mrs. Shield’s is always so friendly with the students in our school. We have seen so many improvements with our kiddos that work with her! I would gladly recommend TPP to anyone based on my interactions with Mrs. Shields.

The staff works hard to ensure that all children are being met at their greatest need

The Pediatric Place has been such a blessing for our son, Bryton, and family. The compassion, kindness, and love that every staff member demonstrates to the kids is truly remarkable. We never leave a session feeling disappointed or unloved. The staff works hard to ensure that all children are being met at their greatest need and feeling rewarded with their accomplishments. We are very blessed to have found The Pediatric Place for our son and would highly recommend them to others! Thank you Pediatric Place for everything you do for Bryton!

I would recommend TPP to anyone parent who is seeking quality therapy that has great results!

We had been going to TPP for going on two years and I have nothing but good memories of this place! The therapists there are so good with the children, give excellent and thorough advice on how to help your child at home and make the whole experience, both of the child and parent, one to remember! I would recommend TPP to anyone parent who is seeking quality therapy that has great results! Mallory will always have a special place in our hearts, as she gave our son the words he needed to make his voice heard.”
