Speech Delay Doctors in Malta

Speech delay occurs when a child's spoken language development lags behind what is expected for their age and may be related to hearing loss, developmental conditions such as autism, or environmental factors. A paediatrician conducts an initial assessment and can arrange hearing tests and referral to a speech and language therapist for targeted intervention. Early identification and therapy greatly improve communication outcomes and reduce the secondary impact on social and educational development.
