Logopediepraktijk Almelo

What Logopediepraktijk Almelo does

Logopediepraktijk Almelo is an independent Dutch speech therapy practice based in Almelo, Netherlands, founded in 1993. It diagnoses and treats speech, language, voice, hearing, and swallowing disorders in both children and adults, delivered by a team of approximately seven registered therapists across three locations within Almelo. Service delivery is in-person clinical care with no proprietary technology platform disclosed; the practice differentiates on registered clinical credentials (NVLF membership, Kwaliteitsregister Paramedici registration) and local accessibility, including the integration of a therapy dog (Cody) for pediatric engagement.

The practice operates a partnership-driven referral model, coordinating with Kinderteam Almelo, local schools, consultatiebureaus, and GPs, and accepts self-referrals via the Directe Toegankelijkheid Logopedie (DTL) pathway. Revenue is generated through fee-for-session billing to Dutch health insurers under the basisverzekering, with direct billing contracts in place with all major insurers to reduce patient payment friction. Operations appear stable and mature, with no disclosed funding, acquisition, or geographic expansion beyond the Almelo catchment in the available data.
