My son has been going since November 2024. This place has been nothing but amazing. My son absolutely loves going. He would rather go to Westside, than school. Everyone we have worked with and encountered has been wonderful. We have been so grateful for their help and support, and suggestions and willing to work with us to help my son. They have been open about any changes or adjustments they have to make to his plan and care, and it all has been for his benefit. He has already made so many great strides in such a short time. My husband and I love how much our son loves it and has enjoyed going, and all the progress we have already seen.

We informed the person in charge of this establishment, but no action was taken. As parents, we have a responsibility to ensure our children are treated with the utmost care and respect. If a place cannot accommodate a child's specific needs while allowing parental supervision, then it is best to find an alternative. No child should be left unattended in a situation like this. It's disheartening that this establishment failed to protect the child's well-being. As a parent witnessing this firsthand, I feel compelled to share this review. Our children deserve better.

My daughter went in for a speech evaluation today, and I can’t even put into words how excited me and her are for her to start speech. The clinic is so nice, the staff is warm and welcoming, and best part I was told right there at the evaluation what they’re game plan was and what the wanted to start working on with her! No waiting to hear back about “what’s wrong” with my child, no waiting to hear back about scheduling a session. Scheduling her next 2 sessions were done right there and then before we left the clinic. My daughter was saying see you soon to her therapist on our way to the car after only meeting and interacting for an hour. She can’t wait to go back and I love that for her!

Giving 3 stars because the therapists are wonderful but be warned their billing department is trash.. and you will get outstanding balances out of no where for services you weren't aware hadn't been covered. Again therapist are wonderful, billing is trash.

MY SON HAS BEEN RECEIVING ABA FOR 2 YEARS AND HE HAS THRIVED SO MUCH. HE ALSO RECEIVES OT AND ST. He has made a huge 360. I am extremely greatful. He loves his school he started at 3.5 years of age with no words, aggressive, tantrums crying etc. Now he is able to communicate his wants and needs. Like any child that doesn't get his way he cries but they don't last long. I was definitely scared but I took that leap of faith and it's really GREAT!! I am going to be forever greatful to EVERYONE that has worked directly with him.

My daughter absolutely loves her speech therapist, "my friend Jess". She wants to leave the house 2 hours early for our appointment and will cry when I tell her it's not time to leave yet. She's built such a trust and deep connection with her that she's willing to try and work hard with her - which is something the strong-willed independent kiddo won't do at home for us. So happy with our experience!

Our twins were preemies. We have been with Westside since they exited early intervention services. They are nearing High School now! Our kids look forward to seeing and working with their therapists. They are like an extension of our family. Just as they have seen our kids grow, we too have watched Westside grow. And although Westside has grown quite a bit, they have not lost sight of their initial purpose . . . helping kids and supporting their families. We are so grateful for Westside and their services!

Very friendly staff, that do great work. However, the lobby area is small and can get congested during the appointment switch over times. Also the lobby area seriously needs some kind of sound dampening to bring the levels down. I have to sit in my car due to the loudness of the lobby.
