Samvaad is a ray of hope for all the parents who are struggling with their childrenās autism and communication difficulties. Within a span of 2 months only my 3 YO non verbal son started understanding what we try to tell him and his receptive language elevated suddenly which didnāt happen with any other place. The therapists are well qualified and thoroughly trained under the supervision of Radhika Maāam and clears the doubts instantly. I strongly recommend this place for ABA cum speech therapy as early intervention at Samvaad as only the right therapy works for the kids struggling with neurodivergence.

My son was six years old when we first learned about ASD, which was completely new to us and unheard of. After some research, we met a few therapists and attended several months of sessions, but the outcome was not satisfactory. We gave up for almost two years. Then, during further research, we found Samvaad. We decided to give it one more try, and the experience has been very positive. What I appreciate most is the personalized program tailored to my child's needs. I sincerely want to thank Radhika Poovayya Mam š for her insights and for creating a detailed roadmap for my son. Thank you š

My son stammering had increased, and his existing speech therapy was not helping. I met Dr Poovaaya and she explained that how proper speech therapy helps to reduce the occurrences of stammering. After 1 month of session and still continuing , I see real improvements in this speech . Dr Poovaya was very polite and understood immediately what the child was going through. She made the therapy fun for the child so that it does become boring or irritating for the child. Thank you doctor.

Hello, our 18-month-old son showed behavioral delays. Dr. Radhika Poovayya conducted a thorough assessment, indicating milestones not met for his age. Despite the early stage, she assured us of the right intervention and introduced us to therapist Ms. Ayesha. Ayesha's dedication was beyond brilliant, creating a strong bond and significant progress in our son's development . Targets given by Dr Poovayya were not just met but exceeded by nearly four times in the 2.5 months. We're immensely thankful to Ayesha's dedication and Dr. Poovayya's expertise, we're returning to the immense positive changes in our son.

Hi,Visited Samvaad for speech therapy as my husband had stroke and had Global Aphasia issue, he couldn't utter even a single word. but within few sessions at Samvaad he was able to talk with few words,. i would suggest this institute to each and every person who is affected from stroke. Now he is going out and speaking confidently with others with confidence and without any inferiorityThey plan the sessions very well stage by stage for improvements,.I have visited many speech centres before coming here, but none of them took sessions properly. They just used to charge sessions and drag the number of days without even a single improvement. This institute is a blessing for my husband to come back to his normal life. We are grateful to Radhika ma'am.

Itās been now over 10 months my son is going here and we are extremely happy seeing his developments each day. So much changes has occurred over the last several months in terms of his overall behaviour, increased sitting tolerance, etc. He is now 4 yrs old and the way he is improving day by day keeps our hope high of seeing him reaching the sky and blooming into an independent adult. This review remains incomplete without thanking his therapist Poorna mam whose sincere efforts has made all the difference. She is such a nice person and my son is so fond of her.
Radhika maām monitors each childās development herself and keeps providing input for next course of action and she is always approachable for any short informal discussion whenever she is there in the centre. I would definitely recommend this place to all other parents looking out to start therapy. The best part is you donāt need to spend separately for speech therapy as their module is an integrated one.

Mohammad, my 8 and a half year old son who's currently on antiepileptics, had behaviour issues. I had lots of issues with his behaviour particularly in a social environment, his English language communication was limited to monosyllables eventhough ** *** * **** ********** expression of emotions was missing and to make matters more challenging, he was hyperactive. In August I was introduced Samvaad therapy Center by my sister and I call this as a magical therapy center. In just 2 and a half month of classes I have seen an incredible change in Mohammad. Now, my son is confident in his expression, speaks English fluently in terms of sentences. And I'am sure with contiued support from everyone at Samvaad my son will surely make them proud. In few months down the line I can see my son standing at par with everyone, matching step to step.
Thank you is a small word but at times this word is big enough to convey all the emotions. So, my heartfelt thanks to Samvaad therapy center, director Dr. Radhika ma'am, seniour supervisor Ms. Suchita ma'am, therapists Ms Soumya, Mr. Ashwin and her incredible team.
Lots of love and regards,
Umme Asma Qamar
