About this listen

Not in the Visit Note is an anonymous podcast hosted by two speech-language pathologists, sharing the conversations that happen after the visit ends—the ones that never make it into the chart.

Each week, we break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of speech therapy life: clinical wins, awkward moments, cancelled visits, productivity pressure, family dynamics, and the emotional weight of the work we do. With honesty, humor, and professionalism, we unpack the realities of being clinicians—where boundaries blur and the work doesn’t end when the session does.

All stories are told through generalized, anonymized, and composite experiences, offering validation, insight, and solidarity for SLPs and rehab professionals who have ever thought, “I can’t put that in the visit note.”

  • Ep. 12 Law and Disorder
    Apr 5 2026
    What happens when speech therapists step outside the therapy room and into completely unexpected situations? In this episode of Not in the Visit Note, we’re sharing our real-life encounters with law enforcement—stories that are equal parts hilarious, awkward, and “you can’t make this up.”

    From being mistaken for something we’re definitely not, to trying to explain our jobs in the most random circumstances, we break down the moments that never made it into the official documentation (for obvious reasons). Along the way, we talk about professionalism in unpredictable situations, how communication skills can come in handy anywhere, and why sometimes… it’s just better to laugh it off later.

    If you’ve ever had a moment at work that felt straight out of a sitcom, this episode is for you. Trust us—these stories are definitely not in the visit note.

    No names. No facilities. Just validation, dark humor, and the stuff that never makes it into the visit note.

  • Ep. 11 “But My Doctor Said…”: When One Opinion Becomes the Only Plan
    Mar 31 2026
    Ever heard a parent say, “But my doctor said he’ll grow out of it” or “We’re just going to wait because the pediatrician isn’t worried”? In this episode of Not in the Visit Note, we dive into what happens when parents rely solely on one professional opinion—and how that can sometimes delay support kids truly need.

    As speech-language professionals, we unpack the gap between medical reassurance and developmental reality. We’re not here to bash doctors—we’re here to add perspective. We’ll talk about common phrases parents hear, why they can be misleading, and what families should consider when making decisions about their child’s communication and development.

    This episode is all about empowering parents to ask more questions, trust their instincts, and understand that one voice shouldn’t be the only voice guiding their child’s care.

    No names. No facilities. Just validation, dark humor, and the stuff that never makes it into the visit note.

  • Ep. 10 Social Media vs Reality
    Mar 22 2026
    Speech therapy on social media looks magical: perfectly curated therapy rooms, kids happily participating, and every strategy working the first time. Meanwhile in real life… there are meltdowns, toys being thrown, sessions that go completely off script, and progress that takes time. In this episode of Not in the Visit Note, we talk about the difference between social media speech therapy and what therapy actually looks like behind the scenes. We break down the highlights people post, the messy parts they don’t, and why therapy progress rarely fits into a 30-second reel.
