Speech Pathologist Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager,

As a qualified Speech Pathologist with 3 years of experience in private and clinic settings, I apply with enthusiasm for this opportunity.

I am currently a Speech Pathologist at Sunnybank Clinic in Dayton, where my role mirrors your requirements. Specifically, I provide, interpret, plan, and supervise patient evaluations and treatments for approximately 1,500 patients annually. I perform voice evaluations and treat voice disorders, carry out bedside swallow evaluations, prepare treatment progress reports, and counsel medical staff and family members to assist patients in treatment techniques.

In addition to my experience, I hold a Master of Speech Pathology, a Certification of Clinical Competence (CCC-SLP), and a Speech-Language Pathology License (SP). I have a cheerful and reassuring manner, and quickly build a rapport with patients and their families. I pride myself on excellent customer service and achieving consistently successful treatment outcomes.

I have enjoyed my time immensely at Sunnybank Clinic. As the clinic is reducing staff due to the global pandemic, I am now seeking an equally-stimulating opportunity where I can make a meaningful impact on patients’ lives. 

For me, this is not just a job – it’s a passion. That’s why I’m strongly drawn to this opportunity to work with a clinic such as yours that prides itself on superior service and healthcare delivery. 

Please find attached my résumé for your consideration. Thank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you regarding next steps.

Yours faithfully,

Rebecca Lavier
