Founder of Speak Up, Smile Bright

My name is Aron Lee, and I am a current medical student at Creighton University. This page was born from conversations with parents who faced the hurdles of scheduling speech appointments for their children with cleft lip and palate. Eager to make a positive impact, I've teamed up with speech pathologists and ENT specialists in the greater Omaha area to offer this valuable service at no cost.
