Megan Mumm, SLP (Speech) 
Megan Mumm is a Speech & Language Pathologist who joins us from Rural Wisconsin Health Cooperative. Megan grew up in Lancaster and pursued her undergraduate from UW-Whitewater, before completing her Master’s Degree at UW-Stevens Point in 2022.
“Speech language pathologists work to prevent, assess, and treat patients who may have difficulty with language, speech, swallowing, cognitive-communication, and social communication. From treating patients with language impairments who may have suffered a stroke to working on feeding infants, we as a profession work with many different aspects of a person’s life,” says Megan. “I find this profession very rewarding as I get the privilege to be actively involved in a person’s positive progression towards their desired goals. I am especially honored to practice in my hometown alongside a network of supportive healthcare workers that have helped me from the start.”
Outside of work, Megan loves to explore and enjoy the great outdoors, whether that is kayaking or boating on the river, or traveling to a new country. She has traveled to Scotland, England, Mexico, and Jamaica and desires to travel to many more!
