About Me

Hello!

I'm John McGarry, M.S. CCC-SLP.  I've been a Speech-Language Pathologist for the past 18 years working mostly in the public schools, but with experience in medical settings.

I'm a married father of two living in Southern New Hampshire.  I have a wonderfully talented daughter and a special needs son, both of whom I love dearly and they are on their way to wonderful lives.

Please feel free to contact me about anything at all, except, of course, spam stuff.
