Speech & Language Therapist / Logopedist (m/f)

About Praktijk De Puzzel

Praktijk De Puzzel, founded by Ann Huysmans, has been an established physiotherapy practice in Retie for over 20 years. Today, we are taking the step from a dedicated physiotherapy practice to a multidisciplinary group practice and are actively working on expanding to additional practice location(s) in Retie (2470) and Mol (2400).

In children, motor development, language, speech, and learning often go hand in hand. To follow up our patients in-house within a multidisciplinary team, we are expanding Praktijk De Puzzel in Retie (2470) and Mol (2400) with speech and language therapy.
