Dr. Veena Kallambettu has opened REN Integrated Therapies (Rehabilitation for Expression & Nourishment), a private speech pathology practice in Powell providing speech, voice, swallowing, and cognitive therapy for adults. The practice is now accepting patients, with appointments typically available within one to two weeks, in person in Powell and via telehealth across Ohio.

REN Integrated Therapies treats adults experiencing changes in communication, swallowing, or thinking — whether from stroke, Parkinson’s disease, dementia, brain injury, head and neck cancer, or other neurological conditions. The practice also offers fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES), a specialized camera-based swallowing assessment that is rarely available in private practice settings.

Dr. Kallambettu is board-certified by the American Board of Swallowing and Swallowing Disorders (ABSSD), a distinction held by fewer than 400 clinicians nationwide. She is also SPEAK OUT!® Certified through the Parkinson Voice Project, which helps people with Parkinson’s disease maintain their speech and voice. She has been recognized for clinical excellence by the Ohio Speech-Language-Hearing Association (2020) and the American Speech-Language-Hearing Foundation (2021).

“I started REN because too many adults — and their families — don’t know that specialized help exists after a stroke, a Parkinson’s diagnosis, or a new swallowing problem,” said Dr. Kallambettu. “REN is the place for the full spectrum of speech pathology care for adults facing any medical diagnosis — speech, voice, swallowing, and cognitive services together from one center instead of pieced out across different providers. The goal is to optimize the whole of a person’s care, not just one part of it.”

REN Integrated Therapies is in-network with Medicare Part B. To schedule an evaluation, call (614) 350-0415 or visit rentherapies.com.
