Sidekick Therapy Partners, one of the largest speech pathology companies in the Appalachian region, has acquired
Word of Mouth Clinical Associates, expanding its presence in the Brentwood area.
Word of Mouth Clinical Associates provides speech-language therapy services in the Middle Tennessee area and employs around 10 speech-language pathologists. The practice offers a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic services to help identify and strengthen each child’s developmental and learning profiles. It has only one clinic, but it offers teletherapy and visits to local schools for observations and assessments.
Sidekick is a privately owned company delivering speech and language services to patients in dozens of public school districts and private schools across Tennessee and North Carolina, as well as at its outpatient clinic in Knoxville, Tennessee. The company focuses on individualized speech therapy and provides schools and patients with access to the services and resources they need to improve their communication and overall quality of life. The company has served Tennessee clients since 1981.
Word of Mouth will transition to the Sidekick Therapy Partners brand later this year. No financial terms were disclosed in this deal.
This is the second acquisition publicly announced by Sidekick Therapy Partners, according to data captured in our LevinPro HC platform. Back in July 2024, the company bought Speechcenter, which provides speech therapy services in Western and Central North Carolina.
