Spotlight: Allison Allcorn, SLP, with Encore Rehabilitation-Cullman

In honor of Better Hearing and Speech Month, Encore Rehabilitation-Cullman invites you to meet Allison Allcorn, Speech-Language Pathologist!

Allison originally grew up in Snead, Alabama, where she graduated from Susan Moore High School. She has received her Bachelor’s Degree in Communication Disorders from Auburn University and her Master’s Degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Faulkner University. Allison has also participated in trainings for Lamp: Words for Life and 1st 50 Words when working with Children. 

In her spare time, she loves spending time with her husband, Noah, and their dog, Oakley. She enjoys traveling and spending time with family and friends on the weekends. 

Allison says, “The highlight of my career is when I am able to see my patients grow in their communication skills. It’s amazing to see the progress and excitement when patients are able to use their voice for the first time. As a child who received speech therapy for over five years, my ultimate goal to help patients reach the fullest potential to improve communication skills just like a speech therapist did in my life. I am blessed to be a part of such a wonderful community and work with amazing families while at Encore Rehabilitation-Cullman.”

Happy Better Hearing and Speech Month, Allison! Thank you for the wonderful care you provide to our patients and their families!

Happy Better Hearing and Speech Month to Encore Rehabilitation Speech-Language Pathologist Gay

Happy Better Hearing & Speech Month!


Gay, one of our wonderful Pediatric Speech Language Pathologists, tells us why she loves her job!

“I love being a Speech-Language Pathologist for the diversity our profession provides. I love being able to work in both the pediatric and geriatric populations with issues from feeding difficulties; language and articulation delays; use of AAC devices for pragmatic and social skills, as well as swallowing issues following strokes or other neurological issues, memory, and cognitive-linguistic tasks. Each patient we work with brings challenges, yet, when we work together with the patient and family, we can provide the best means for communication to swallow safely to meet their needs. I am blessed to be a part of this profession and a part of our team of SLPs.” ~ Gay

Thank you for everything you do, Gay! We are glad to have you in the Encore Rehab family!
