About this listen
Guest: Dr. Raquel Garcia - As SLPs, it is so important that we maintain a spirit of continual learning, and today's guest, Dr. Raquel Garcia, is an exemplary example of a life-long learner. She is a trained craniofacial speech-language pathologist and works at Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital, where she is a core member of the craniofacial team. Raquel works in the acute care setting in the neonatal
intensive care unit and pediatric cardiac intensive care unit. In this episode, Raquel talks about
her journey to becoming an SLP and how she found her current niche. We dive into a range of
infant airway disorders, where Raquel thoroughly guides us through what we should be looking
out for. While it may appear overwhelming, Raquel is gifted at explaining complicated concepts
in a digestible, accessible manner. Our conversation also touches on the importance of
authentically connecting with other practitioners, the power of remembering our why, and
understanding the key role that the community SLP plays in helping patients and their families
overcome their difficulties. Raquel's passion for her craft is truly inspiring, so tune in to hear it
all!
