In this new mini-series, we explore different health professions to get a better understanding of the variety of team members involved in patient care. In our inaugural episode for the series, we sat down with speech-language pathologist Blake Potts Le and discussed her path to becoming an SLP and the field more broadly.
Blake Potts Le is from Richmond, Virginia. She attended the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Virginia and received a double major in French and Communications Sciences and Disorders. She went on to achieve her Master of Science Degree in Speech-Language Pathology at Florida State University in Tallahassee, Florida. She began her career as a speech-language pathologist at Lucy Corr, a retirement community in Chesterfield, Virginia. She then accepted a position with HCA at Henrico Doctor's Hospital working primarily with adults. Blake has also worked in outpatient pediatrics at Retreat Doctor's Hospital. She currently works primarily in the NICU at Henrico Doctor's hospital as a feeding specialist. In her free time, Blake loves to play with her dog, spend time with her husband (who is an occupational therapist), read, and go to the gym.
